Compact disc sales continue to decline, but is the CD’s time really over? Ted talks about where things stand and how the CD will live on for some uses. If CDs are dying, what about movie delivery? Ted had some recent experiences with Ultraviolet and explains the goods and bads of that interaction. To wrap up, Ted and Chuck discuss the degree to which technology has migrated to a media delivery focus.

Ted talks about why this will be such a boon, the move in the direction of a more complete touch interface, and how this may make our tech tools more like appliances.

If you’re in San Francisco for the show, I hope you’ll stop by any or all of the sessions I’m participating in and say hello. The schedule includes:

  • Thursday at 5:15 PM – On the Macworld Live Stage on the show floor with other members of The Mac Roundtable. I’ll be acting as the host, so you’ll want to join us to see if I can keep Allison in line.
  • Friday at 12:00 PM – On the Macworld Live Stage for a panel discussion about “Parenting in the Age of the Internet.” This will be a terrific discussion for those who are trying to work through issues such as social network use, gaming, texting, and everything else our connected world has brought us. With kids and tech, what is too much…or not enough? We’ll explore those issues and more with a panel of technologist parents, including:

Tonya Engst – TidBITS and Take Control Books maven
Omaha Sternberg – The force behind iGame Radio
Christopher Breen – Macworld Senior Editor
Chuck La Tournois – The founder of RandomMaccess and contributor to The Mac Observer

  • Saturday at 10:30 AM – In the Drobo Booth, #453 doing a meet-and-greet with fans and friends, and talking about why I own three different Drobo models.

The rest of the show? I’ll be on the exhibit floor as much as possible taping interviews with exhibitors and Mac luminaries, attending some of the conference sessions and in general getting as much out of Macworld as possible. And of course, don’t forget the Final Cut Pro SuperMeet on Friday, and the parties every night.

I want to thank my sponsors, Drobo, Smile and Rogue Amoeba for their support and for making MacVoicesTV at Macworld possible.

If you can’t make it to San Francisco, fear not: I’ll be recording plenty of interviews to help you feel like you were there.

Hope to see you this week, and in the future on MacVoices, MacVoicesTV, MacNotables and The MacJury.

The phone’s hotspot capabilities, the choice of CDMA, and what it will do and what it won’t due are part of Ted’s analysis.

The phone’s hotspot capabilities, the choice of CDMA, and what it will do and what it won’t due are part of Ted’s analysis. Ted then turns his attention to the Mac App Store and how it is and will affect how we buy and manage apps now and in the future, and discussions his plans, session and schedule for Macworld 2011.Links Chuck Joiner on Twitter The MacVoices Group Subscribe to MacNotables in iTunes Ted Landau on Twitter Ted Landau’s Slanted Viewpoint The Best Way to Stream Netflix by Ted Landau on The Mac Observer Angry Birds: The All-Purpose Guide to Three Stars [Part 1] by Ted Landau on The Mac Observer Angry Birds: The All-Purpose Guide to Three Stars [Part 2] by Ted Landau on The Mac Observer Angry Birds Angry Birds Seasons Angry Birds Seasons HD iPhone from Verizon iPad MacVoices #10135: The Road to Macworld – Paul Kent Covers The New Industry Forum and Updates Everything Else at Macworld iOS: Under the Hood – Ted’s Session at Macworld 2011 The Mac App Store: First Take by Ted Landau on The Mac Observer Understanding Mac App Store App Restrictions by Ted Landau on The Mac Observer Defalut Folder X by St. Clair Software SuperDuper from Shirt Pocket Software Commentary, Events, Hardware, iPhone, Software, Web chuck@macnotables.com no no MacNotables #1020: Dennis Sellers on the Intersection of a Post-PC World and Apple’s WWDC Announcements http://www.macnotables.com/macnotables-1020-dennis-sellers-on-the-intersection-of-a-post-pc-world-and-apples-wwdc-announcements/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=macnotables-1020-dennis-sellers-on-the-intersection-of-a-post-pc-world-and-apples-wwdc-announcements http://www.macnotables.com/macnotables-1020-dennis-sellers-on-the-intersection-of-a-post-pc-world-and-apples-wwdc-announcements/#comments Tue, 08 Jun 2010 13:30:00 +0000 Chuck Joiner http://www.macnotables.com/wordpress/?p=560 Dennis Sellers provides his thoughts on the announcements at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), with an eye toward what a post-PC world might look like. Dennis and host Chuck Joiner hit the high points of Steve Jobs’ keynote, including the new iPhone design, the clear shots at Google, and how the biggest surprise announcement was software-based. The iPhone 4 and the newly renamed iOS 4.0 addressed many of the criticisms that have been leveled at the iPhone in recent months; Dennis and Chuck look at those, and more.

What can we expect to see next week? Ted offers some thoughts in light of the delinquency and sometimes outright lack of announcements about WWDC. Ted also discusses two new security concerns you should be aware of, including the new possibility of “tabnapping” in your favorite browser, and his latest adventures in the world of iPad gaming.
