Macworld kicked off this morning at Mosconi Center with Steve Jobs’ much anticipated keynote address focusing almost entirely on iPhone and, to a lesser degree, iTV. The next several months will likely provide additional product announcements… But iPhone? That’s pretty big news. Here’s the link to watch either (1) the entire keynote address, or (2) just the segment introducing the iPhone.  Comments Cisco? 

More about the new Apple iPhone: There are no click wheel or navigation buttons;  it’s all touchpad controlled and is filled with everything from your music, photos, movies, podcasts, the internet, email, contacts, calendar… and a 2mp camera. It runs on an abbrebviated version of Mac OSX so it functions much like a desktop Mac including Safari HTML browser (with tabbed browsing and full html views of websites including images), Google Maps and Widgets. A 3.5” widescreen monitor features Apple’s highest resolution yet, 161 ppi.

The new Apple TV devise is a set top unit that wirelessly syncs with your Mac or PC, then streams movies, photos, music, podcasts, slideshows etc from your computer(s) to your wide-screen TV in HD.

Definitely “outside the box.” Engadget has more details and photos from the keynote.
