Been a Mac user literally since 1984, so am solidly in the Mac-Fanatic category.

But i really find these devices pure overkill, there are functions that i have never used and probably never wil use. That’s because these devices are trying to suit everyone.

If apple does make an iPhone they should really target to one consumer market, or make several devices.
Oh and not make the mistake of putting a small screen on it like on the iPod, it’s nice for the iPod (a piece of text here, a video thumbnail there) put when you start putting icons an menu’s on a 2,5inch screen it becomes unusable.

But the idea is great!

Kinda like a T-Mobile MDA (PDA/Phone) but with stuff like iPhoto, iTunes, some kind of VoIP function, Calendar, E-Mail etc. and it all sync with my iMac. I can’t wait!!!

An uber apple device would be pretty sweet, i don’t believe apple have tackled the gaming industry enough. I think that apple with the brain power of the whole apple team could come up with something revolutionary there.

The long awaited iPhone that rumours keep popping up about would be a good start for apple to get a foothold in the uberdevice market!

I ersonnaly dont own a mac PC but have worked on them and i do rather like them, I do own the Ipod which i suppose in a way introduced me to the mac world. And i do love a good bit of mac news keep up the good website dude.

Make it something easy enough that families can use sat on the sofa, through their nice big new TV. Makes sense, and would distinguish it from other set-top boxes out there.

I think you are close to the mark. But not an Uber device that has evrything including the kitchen sink…. this is not Apple’s style. But I see an Uber device focused on some key mobile applications… iCamera, iPhone,iPod iWeb ….. something along these lines. and probably even tuned into .mac. Uber yes! iWant!
