    "We've designed a battery that will last 8 hours on a charge, and can be charged 1000 times..." "The key to building a longer battery is making it bigger... the challenge is where to find the space to put it... in a removable battery there's a lot of wasted space."

    so no removable battery

    but i have to say that it's better to have iMac and smaller MacBook Pro (15 for example). isn't 17 just too big for a laptop?

    "We get up to 1000 recharges... we have a chip in the battery that talks to each cell, and the system adjusts the current accordingly. 3x the charges and lifespan of the industry standard."

    60% increase in battery life

    It's great to see how many people want to buy music like this -- iTunes became the number one channel for music in the US. So what's new in 2009?"


    I'd like to tell you about three things... first... price."


    Over the last six years songs have been $0.99 -- music companies want more flexibility. New pricing, $0.69, and another tier at $1.29."

    "Next, iTunes Plus -- it's DRM free, and much higher quality. We've worked with all the major companies... starting today, 8 million songs will be DRM free."


    "By the end of this quarter, all 10 million songs will be DRM free." About time


    All songs drm free

    The third new thing happening with iTunes has to do with the iPhone."

    "The music store is no longer just on WiFi -- it's over 3G as well."

    It's the same quality you get in the store, right on your phone, no matter where you are, and you can sync back to your computer. That starts today."
