Wishes Fulfilled!

So even though this site is primarily about what we wish Apple would do, every once in a while it's nice to see some of our recommendations being implemented by the guys at Cupertino.

I'm sure that it wasn't entirely our fault that these features were implemented in products, but I'd like to think that Dear Cupertino has done it's fair share in influencing Jobs and the rest of the Cupertino crew to make these things happen.

It is with great pleasure that I can tell you that Apple is a company that listens to it's customers. Okay - so some of their decisions might not be as glamorous as we'd expect, (nor as popular), but at the end of the day - Steve is looking after you, the consumer.

Righto -- so it's great to see two wishes that have been made true;

  1. The Biggest Little iPod In The World
    Wow - the third generation Nano may have come and gone - and with it, the 4GB iteration of the above - but the fourth generation has now landed, complete with 16GB of juicy flash goodness, and in a whole heap of different colors, too!
    We love it - it's another great Apple product.


  2. iSights in the Monitors
    So we've now seen the arrival of the new 24" LED Cinema Display, and while some may not be a fan of it's glossy appearance, it's hard to deny the fact that it include an iSight in the monitor - that much is a given.
    However - we're yet to see some really-cool feature by Apple to make use of this second iSight - if you've got any suggestions for this second iSight, we'd love to hear them (just shoot off an email to joel.esler [at] me [dot] com).
If there are any other previous Dear Cupertino entries that I've missed but have now been given the green light by Apple, let me know in the comments.

Cheers,
Benny Ling.

iSights in the Monitors?

Dear Cupertino,

I know you guys are probably working on this, but since you stopped making the iSight as a standalone camera, the people with Mac Pro's have kinda been assed out!

iMacs have the cameras built in.
MacBooks do.
MacBook Pros do.

The Mac Pro people are kinda left out there hanging a bit without a camera to be able to talk to the rest of us!

So Apple, when you do your next monitor refresh and change your monitors from fluorescent to LCD, how about you throw an iSight in there too?

Thanks,

Joel
