During The Standerd days, me and Joey used “werd” a lot, and still do.

Don’t be shocked when the Apple television has a Retina Display as a key feature. Because your eye’s distance from the screen is part of the calculation, a television could fit the “retina” 300ppi minimum requirement easier than most other screens they make.
In fact, they already have more than enough pixels in the existing 24” iMac screen, so it’s just a matter of manufacturing it at 50”, rather than any major technological leaps.
If they do that, it could redefine the “HD” label. To put it in perspective, on a “retina” TV, a Blu-Ray movie (as HD as you can get) would still have the black outline around it like you get with standard-def on today’s HDTVs. (That’s with rough math, but you get the picture.)
That would leave the content as the weak link, but that’s where the existing Apple TV infrastructure could really help complete the package. It would take a while to prepare content at a whole new resolution, but who better than Apple to make that push?

Why haven’t we seen more behavior-based interfaces yet?
For instance, just about every time I log into my Google account, one of the first places I go is to my Google Docs. So in the top menu bar, why doesn’t “Documents” automatically become one of my main buttons, instead of remaining buried in the “More” list?
There are lots of other places where an app or website that “learns” from what we do on a regular basis could help efficiency and ease of use. Hell, I’m surprised the iPhone can’t auto-organize your apps by what you use most.

“
No right is absolute and with every right comes responsibilities.
The First Amendment gives every New Yorker the right to speak out — but it does not give anyone the right to sleep in a park or otherwise take it over to the exclusion of others — nor does it permit anyone in our society to live outside the law.
