Going paperless from a news perspective, the goods and bars of some news apps, whether there will be new iPods soon, whether there will be an Apple television at all, and why Apple stopped renting TV shows all figure into the discussion.

The discussion then turns to OS X 10.7 Lion, their adoption (or not) of the new OS, and why the answer just might represent a possible generation gap regarding Mac customization. Tonya tries to solve Chris’ email challenges, they share their frustrations over financial software incompatibility, and explain why macros are hot.

Is that possible? Is that a good thing? Ted discusses the tradeoffs, and the impact on the casual user vs the expert. Wireless sync for iOS devices and why it can be such a critical feature for the iPad, Apple’s cash position and more are also covered.

Ted shares the few issues he had with upgrading, reveals his new choice of financial software, and why he’s giving time to almost all of the new features Apple introduced. Some can be turned on, some turned off; Ted talks about which he’s done what to, what new feature is dead on arrival and which are his favorites, and how it all comes together in the newest version of the Mac operating system.

TidBITS is available through a number of channels now (at least one of which we didn’t know about until Tonya told us). Tonya talks about what it will mean for their distribution model, and why Apple may be able to calm the maelstrom that has been the delivery of iOS content and ebooks. Switching sides, Tonya also provides some perspective on these changes from the advertiser and consumer perspectives, names her favorite WWDC announcement, and what we will remember about iOS 5 in the distant future.

Even if it isn’t, iCloud promises to make moving files to and from your iDevice a whole lot easier than it is now. 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.
