Steve Jobs declares 2007 to be "one of the most exciting" in Apple's history
During last week's conference call in which Apple announced preliminary 4th Q earnings, Mr. J apparently also declared 2007 to be "one of the most exciting new product years in Apple's history." While we already know about some things like the iTV, we don't have much else to go on but unconfirmed rumors of iPhones and 6G wide and/or touchscreen iPods. For now, the real significance here is Steve's bragging about 2007's lineup. In the past he's declared 'the year of the notebook' or 'the year of HD'

Boy I hope this isn't like the "Year of the Notebook", you know the year we stayed with 1.67 G4s.

(hope it has at least 24 hours of battery life. phones that dont.... not such good phones), iTV, faster mac minis, quadcore xserves, quadcore mac pros...
i can see him being excited. with intel aggressively competing to gain back market share by introducing better products, and apple aggressively gaining as much PC marketshare as they can I can see why it would be a very awesome year for apple, and especially so if they're launch into the gazillion dollar mobile phone and home entertainment markets go well

Presenting iPod Hi-Fi 2.0... Now with widescreen clock radio!!!

Every year can be said to be "one of the most exciting new product years in Apple's history." Until next year, that is.

What in the world do I think I am doing even considdering such a crazy idea!.
Hell I may do it anyway. They really look cool. They all have a mic and camera built in. I love confrencing with video.
The computer should have all the abilities of the phone. I want built in brodband.
Macs are cool. Maybe too cool.
Yep. Too cool.
I believe the iTV will one day become the game system of our homes. If it has the guts of an iPod it can play games. Think if you had 4 Apple remotes.. starts to look like a Nintendo wii.

Apple is pulling and ruling the consumer electronics market. They are the herdsman of 800 pound gorillas that once dominated the electronic entertainment industry. 2007 will be a great year for Apple.
