@jcbouvier I wouldn't be shocked if all that we saw was created in Illustrator to make sure it didn't crash on stage. :-)

@Ovo671 @mkoby I knew what I was getting into. Apple HAS slowed down and today I didn't see much that convinced me otherwise.

Steve Gillmor - FriendFeed
Apple made me a little jealous (I still have mostly Macs at home and still am an iPad fan). But Google's openness is bringing me features and experiences that Apple didn't match today (while it did show stuff that others don't yet do, like keep thieves from using my devices).
What this really means is:
1. Apple's profits are safe. If you have an iPhone, this makes you feel good and you aren't likely to dump over and get an Android.
2. Apple's influencers are safe. I spoke to lots of audiences lately and the tech passionates are HEAVILY iPhone, even in Europe.
3. This effectively locks Microsoft and Blackberry out of the market (and the new Firefox and Tienzen OS's). The Apple announcements make those seem lame and continue the Google and Apple world against everyone else.
4. I still think Google Glass is a bigger threat to Apple than it understands.
More on all this on Gillmor Gang shortly at http://friendfeed.com/stevegillmor This will be a short show, gotta end by 12:45.

@ScottJonesy price matters a LOT to those markets. But, yes, they want to be just like us. If they can afford it.

@ScottJonesy I don't think it changes market share much. But it keeps influencers on Apple. Apple's profits and brand will be untouched.

@mkoby yes, a little. Google needs to step up its game. Competition is good! But there is still a lot on Android I love.

Man, have a lot to say about Apple's new stuff so we are doing a Gillmor Gang right at the end of keynote. This keeps Blackberry and WP out.

@fmanjoo you should. Apps in NY are different than SF. Like subway apps.
