Appletellcast weekly Apple podcast, March 22nd 2009

This week’s biggest announcement was obviously Apple’s preview of iPhone OS 3.0. It has all of the things we’ve been wanting on the iPhone. Well, except multitasking, bluetooth keyboards, video, new hardware… Okay, so if there’s one thing I’m relatively sure about, it’s that we’ll never be happy. iPhone OS 3.0 does represent a large step forward for the iPhone, so I think we’ll all be excited to get our hands on it in June.

That said, other things happened. I had quite the experience with my new iPod shuffle, and Kirk has another old, hard-to-find Mac game that he wants you to dust off. And of course, our iPhone Podium stand winner! If you didn’t win, don’t worry, we still have one more to give away this week. You’ll have to listen to find out how to enter. And as always, our 20% off discount code (appletell) still works for Podium stands. Even if Apple wants them to change their name. So check out the Appletellcast that has automatically been downloaded in iTunes, because you already subscribed in iTunes, didn’t you?
