I just noticed this new column this morning! it’s called “Price”!!
Is Apple preparing to charge for some podcast?
I know that some podcasted have been dreaming of this revenue model over an advertisement based. But seriously, you show is better to be very good for me to pay. I know that advertisers have been more than slow to embrace podcasting but i’m not sure that a paying model is going to work either.
I’ve checked around and haven’t found more about this for now, but will continue to dig.
Could it fly? Can’t say I heard the lP on iTunes are a succes!
Rumor: Ebooks for Apple Tablet, From Harper Collins [Rumors]
Based on explanations by Brian Murray, the chief executive of HarperCollins, the reason Amazon would initially have something to fear is that “e-books enhanced with video, author interviews and social-networking applications could command higher retail prices for publishers than current e-books” in the future. Apple’s tablet would, of course, be ideal for such enhanced content, and we already know that they’ll be digging for mags, newspapers and college textbooks but this is some of the first we’ve heard of Apple negotiating with publishers for regular e books.
Ah, I suppose we’ll be able to speculate some more on January 27th, in the meantime—on the tablet or not—”enhanced ebooks” sound like a blast. Just imagine how often you’ll say that something was way better with the author commentary. [WSJ]
Et tu, Brute?
On Gizmodo: Apple Co-Founder Steve Wozniak’s Favorite Gadget? The Google Phone [Apple]
Yes, you read that right. Steve Wozniak, Apple co-founder and Gizmodo guest contributor extraordinaire, has confessed that his favorite gadget is Google’s Nexus One. Oh Woz, my darling, you just broke my iPhone-powered heart.
We know that Woz picked up an iPhone right when it first came out and it’s
perfectly OK that he picked up a Nexus One right on its release day, too. But proclaiming the Google device as his favorite gadget? Ouch.
I do wonder what his reasons are for that proclamation when he also explained that an iPhone is still his main cellphone.
And another monthly bill for you!
Do we really need a super sized iPhone? Not me!
On gizmodo: Orange Chief Confirms Apple Tablet With Built-In Webcam [Blockquote]
“Oui.” That’s what Stéphane Richard—Orange’s Chief Executive Officer Delegate—answered to French journalist Jean Pierre Elkabbach on radio Europe 1, when asked about the imminent launch of the Apple tablet. He talked about a built-in web cam too:
Jean Pierre Elkabbach: According to Le Point, your partner Apple will launch a Tablet…
Stéphane Richard:
Yes.
Jean Pierre Elkabbach: …with a webcam…
Stéphane Richard: Yes.
Jean Pierre Elkabbach: …would Orange users benefit from this?
Stéphane Richard: Sure! They are going to benefit from the web cam, they are going to be able to, in effect, transmit images in real time. We are going to modernize, in essence, the video phone that we knew a few years ago… the size of the resolution, and the quality of the resolution will be better, and it will be available to all in France.
Interesting!
