Yeah, where’s the talking robot?
Everyone at school says it’ll be a video iPod. Contrarian that I am, and going for the long shot, I’ll say OSX for the PC. Video is too obvious. Even if in time for Christmas.
Hell, just last year it might have leaked. Those were the days…
Bodog has odds on what will be unveiled at Apple’s press conference on October 12th, which has tech geeks all frothy with anticipation. So far, the heavy favorites are a video iPod at 3/2, iPod upgrades at 2/1, and updated versions of Mac and Powerbook at 2/1. Longshot odds go to an OSX for the PC at 9/1, which sadly, we have no idea what that means. Aren’t we at the stage where Apple can make a talking robot that does houshold chores? Weren’t those things supposed to be in every home by like 1994?
How about a web-enabled iPod?
UPDATE: Here’s a waffle making-robot… But can it play 99¢ songs?
