This involves a lot of setup for me: a computer that can multitask, finding you on Friendfeed, and starting to watch the blank video screen at Building43. Are you worth it?

Fortunately, that was a rhetorical question

NOA ( no one will answer ) Q1 - Did Benioff do LSD recently and had an encounter with Jobs to go one with his mission ?

- Ian Waring
I did the same thing, Danny.
- Tom Guarriello
Kevin, what a great video that was! And those same Lemming's are now Apple's
- Francine Hardaway

- Matthew Voshell
All scheduled out 8-10 working days
- Ian Waring
my friend got an update for a 10/10 delivery
- Matthew Voshell
I'm annoyed they sold out of Nexus 4's
- Kevin Marks
iPhone 5s - the new camera, processor(s), fingerprint reader
- Ankush Narula
THat's BS, to have only 8 gold
- Francine Hardaway
Robert must have awful jetlag haha
- Matthew Voshell
Only 2 gold ones available at the Apple Store I was at (suburban Philly). I really wanted the Space Grey and am enjoying it as you speak. Demoed Google Glass in the store to a ton of people.
- Alex de Soto
Both new models have all European LTE bands - a first for Apple
- Ian Waring
Microsoft has $350 for gently-used iPads http://www.geekwire.com/2013...
- clive boulton
The 5Cs are actually quite nice too.
- Alex de Soto
Danny Sullivan in the role of ninja provacateur today!
- Tom Guarriello
Nice IOS on my "old" 5
- Arnie Klaus
Ordered a gold one for my wife. Son ordered a 64GB silver one

- Ankush Narula
M7
- Nir Ben Yona
M7
- Arnie Klaus
Even Australia and China were 8-10 days lead time as midnight struck in both
- Ian Waring
For the 5C
- Ian Waring
i'm surprised robert isnt getting yelled at, i tried taking pictures inside an apple store and was told to delete
- Matthew Voshell
5s sorry
- Ian Waring
the 5C doesn't move the ASP that much, as it displaces the older model
- Kevin Marks
Is robert using his g glass?
- Arnie Klaus
Now I want Touch ID on an iPad mini!
- Alex de Soto
A good smartphone running Android 4.2.2 or 4.3 for $150-$200? Does such a device exist? And does it run Google against services?
- Ankush Narula
CEO Apple, Fan of Auburn football and Duke basketball twitter.com/tim_cook
- clive boulton
I'm oddly intrested in the 5C
- Matthew Voshell
the 5C is slightly faster - more LTE bands - and front-facing camera is slightly better - that's it
- Ankush Narula
Fashion First!
- Arnie Klaus
The 5C feels solid with a great weight and feel. The 5S has the killer app: Touch ID.
- Alex de Soto
Just add a plastic cover onto your iPhone 5, upgrade to iOS 7 and you have the iPhone 5c
- Moe Glitz
tell me what you think of our studio lighting today
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Yeah, but do I want to pay $549 for a 5S?
- Francine Hardaway
iPhone 5C is basically an iPhone 5 coming in a colored plastic case.
- Nir Ben Yona
yea fashion forward ladies
- Matthew Voshell
Tina: Studio Lighting is awesome.
- Alex de Soto
Slow-Mo feature on the 5S is cool.
- Nir Ben Yona
android will be barely wounded
- Kevin Marks
China! bingo
- Ankush Narula
Scoble crashed
- Tina Chase Gillmor
The Fingerprint makes all else obsolete.
- Arnie Klaus
Helvetica Neue is the new Helvetica
- Tom Guarriello
its "different' yet the same... its a way to have people set themselves apart from each outher other than using cases. Moto X is doing the same thing with custom backs
- Matthew Voshell
C is for colour
- Moe Glitz
C is for Come on really?
- Ankush Narula
I want a Blue Dalmatian one
- Kevin Marks
Every new carrier taking iPhone for first time has Apple bite 50% of share vs Android immediately. China Mobile is biggest outlet WW for Lenovo. They'll get squished.
- Ian Waring
S is for Scanner
- Moe Glitz
Did they take his glasses?
- Arnie Klaus
John T is a gold kind of guy...
- Tom Guarriello
Gang Bling: 5s Gold
- Alex de Soto
A group of serious people talking about the color of their phones? Unbelievable.
- Nir Ben Yona
+1 avocado refrig
- Tom Guarriello
Serious colors - yep. That's the Apple magic.
- John Taschek
+1 Tom
- Francine Hardaway
Let's take this to the makeup room boys!
- Arnie Klaus
My wife points out that white phones show makeup.
- Murray Macdonald
I have an Orange firefox phone
- Kevin Marks
Sold my Firefox phone today...
- Ian Waring
Kevin that's novel of you
- Francine Hardaway
Is anyone thinking of the unlocked Tmobile iPhone?
- John Taschek
Alex thanks... anyone else can comment on studio lighting
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Can start the Roku vs Apple TV debate
- Moe Glitz
Apparently my UK PayGo sim roamed onto Rogers when I flew over Canada
- Kevin Marks
Grab a floor model
- Arnie Klaus
The new upgraded Apple TV
- Moe Glitz
Good podcast with Benedict Evans - Apple pricing brilliance, Android okay, but Firefox OS no market...
- Ian Waring
John - there's two phones - there's the T-Mobile and the Unlocked - separate phones
- Ankush Narula
If I'm going to pay $549 I might as well go TMobile unlocked, John Taschek
- Francine Hardaway
I think separate SKUs - but both are same model as AT&T
- Ankush Narula
Yes - the unlocked phone is only Tmobile though .. correct? Via the Apple store I mean.
- John Taschek
A1533
- Ankush Narula
We went unlocked 32GB Gold
- Ian Waring
Yea Roku has been signing deals with TV man. to be the on board OS... very quitelly...
- Matthew Voshell
Finger Scanner Game changer for all password technologies
- Arnie Klaus
Ian, that new Cubed podcast sounds like it's going to be a good one https://itunes.apple.com/us...
- Tom Guarriello
Boxing day sales are like that...
- Murray Macdonald
Put another way - is Tmobile relevant here?
- John Taschek
24hrs!
- Tina Chase Gillmor
They were when they were going to get bought out.. but that died out... now they are for people who have shitty credit
- Matthew Voshell
I like t-mobile, the contract-free model is nice
- Kevin Marks
The Enterprise impact of fingerprints is interesting. All fingerprint scanners are proprietary.
- John Taschek
And marketing
- christina sponselli
Cubed Podcast was brilliant - 3 Bens - looked at Apples strategy this week
- Ian Waring
Samsung sent spies to uncover Apple's iPhone line phenom http://cnet.co/18g8Rjz
- Nir Ben Yona
But everyone will have to support it.
- John Taschek
I think so - there are two A1533 - GSM and CDMA version - the GSM version works on T-Mobile and AT&T and supports legacy T-Mobile AWS bands
- Ankush Narula
5th Avenue store is on the visitor list like Statue of Liberty and Empire State Building
- Tom Guarriello
I'm updating my Apple TV while I'm watching this
- Francine Hardaway
straight talk t mob $45/mo "unlimited"
- Da
I pay $40/month for unlimited talk and data on Wind Mobile, no contract.
- Murray Macdonald
the CDMA version (alsop called A1533 for some reason) supports all of the above + EVDO 2 for Verizon only
- Ankush Narula
the family plan is good
- Kevin Marks
apple isn't going away.... its getting better - see today's article about their design teams in USAToday
- Ed Schlesinger
att lte too w/ straight talk 45/mo
- Da
iPhone 6 is gonna have a larger screen.
- Nir Ben Yona
I would like to have a larger screen and I dont even have the new phone yet
- Tina Chase Gillmor
call that a larger screen? LOL
- Kevin Marks
Apple matters to Apple fans, but they don't matter to the rest.
- Murray Macdonald
yes, exactly
- Kevin Marks
I pay less than $20/month for 600 mins, 5000 texts, unlimited 3G/HSPA+/LTE all I can eat
- Ian Waring
I know many people who have switched (happily) to T-Mobile - the service deployments of 1900 (AT&T 4G compatible) towers and LTE have been aggressive over the past 1.5 yr
- Ankush Narula
iPhone is dinky
- Kevin Marks
i would like a phone between the 5 and the mini
- Tina Chase Gillmor
what the 64-bit capable iOS 7 and the M7 chip really mean http://cannyvision.com/2013...
- clive boulton
Im annoyd no one has noticed that the one and only, Robert Scoble, is casually walking around the Apple store :-)
- Darren James
lets all go and buy a blackberry
- Ed Schlesinger
What percentage of Android phones can run Google services? Less than half WW
- Ian Waring
With big fingers I find the Nexus 4 too small. When I try to use my wife's 4s I find it so small it's unusable.
- Murray Macdonald
Kevin: ecosystem vs ecosystem - luckily iOS is relevant enough that Google is still providing services for it - to bad for Windows Phone
- Ankush Narula
it was $200
- Kevin Marks
THis better be a big update on Apple TV; it takes a lot of time
- Francine Hardaway
The iPhone 6 needs a new design otherwise I won't upgrade
- Moe Glitz
Notice that CyanogenMod has got $7m series funding this week, have at least one hardware OEM behind the curtain. Wonder if that's Nokia?
- Ian Waring
Finger scans for ecommerce, too
- christina sponselli
Can you see the monitors in our studio betters today?
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I am using an original Galaxy S as I gave my son my Galaxy Nexus. I need a new Android.
- Kevin Marks
Once you use Touch ID you will not want to go back. Already frustrated by the iPad 'cause it doesn't have it. Apparently though, a cat's paw will also work to unlock your phone. I'll have to register my cat's paws to see if it works.
- Alex de Soto
M7 is the thing for the future, will help battery life on nav and fitness apps
- Ian Waring
Alex: saw that last night funny
- Ankush Narula
@Francine http://www.wired.com/gadgetl...
- Matthew Voshell
John, share the candy!
- Arnie Klaus
M7 aka the medical coprocessor (not motion)?
- clive boulton
Chromecast will go past Apple TV installed base by xmas
- Ian Waring
Best of all today: I was in line with 3 very cool Apple store geniuses, all getting 5S.
- Alex de Soto
@clive: no reason they couldn't provide an API to 3rd party accessories for M7 - but highly improbable
- Ankush Narula
I read that, Matthew.
- Francine Hardaway
why on earth are they running out of phones? can't they anticipate demand?
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Is that a pneumatic tube!
- Arnie Klaus
They're running out on purpose to raise hype.
- Murray Macdonald
I don't think they're running out. I think they're controlling demand.
- John Taschek
iBeacon will be good, will zap NFC which was poorly thought out by the banks
- Ian Waring
@Ankush they might provide the API to Nike (who wants to get out of shoes and into health)
- clive boulton
I bet I can go in there Monday as a business customer (I am) and get a 5S
- Francine Hardaway
Low yields on components
- Ian Waring
Lose a week and push on the fence people to the 5c
- Ankush Narula
The iPhone hardware has matured. But they need to get more focused on cooler software services. Those can sell a mobile even better than design
- Moe Glitz
Supply might be based on keeping secrets.
- Arnie Klaus
@clive - true
- Ankush Narula
Create the mob that came for the 5s, and lead them to Macbooks and iPads.
- John Taschek
Why not just wait two weeks?
- Murray Macdonald
I hear that the thumbprint scanner was one of the reasons we did not get enough phones but Apple was really testing interest in the gold both online and offline before they sped up production.
- Alex de Soto
Can't get a Moto X outside the USA #fail
- Ian Waring
Murray, I will do that
- Francine Hardaway
they are using the first 64bit chips, likely low yields for a bit
- Kevin Marks
@Moe - Apple only does cloud services for Apple clients - that's why it's not interesting to devs (IMHO)
- Ankush Narula
When is the new Nexus phone coming out, Kevin? Is it 64-bit?
- John Taschek
Needed to profile 5c color mix
- Ian Waring
Oh, Murray, so rational...
- Tom Guarriello
Lines were really crazy today. Here's my post with pics & vids from the queues outside the Apple stores http://bit.ly/18FmGMr
- Nir Ben Yona
soon presumably, and I doubt it'll be 64 bit
- Kevin Marks
It's interesting how more and more Google apps are showing up on iOS - it's probably increasing the demand for Apple.
- John Taschek
I thought 5C was lovely when I played with it - a hit. For me, the 5S isn't as nice an object, BUT the 5S has fingerprint and better camera and processor. I WANT 5S IN AN UNASHAMED PLASTIC CASE!
- Roger Shepherd
Not for me. I don't lock my phone. Why would I?
- Francine Hardaway
Bing now has a good IOS App
- Arnie Klaus
is iOS 7 on iPad good?
- Kevin Marks
I absolutely love IOS7
- Francine Hardaway
Fair, Kevin.
- Tom Guarriello
On the line at Apple we reminisced about past launche glitches too: MobilleMe, first activations, etc.
- Alex de Soto
wondering if I should update today (have't touched the iPad in >2 weeks)
- Kevin Marks
Kevin -- better than the iphone IMHO.
- Nir Ben Yona
Kevin: running it on iPad 3 - runs quite well
- Ankush Narula
Kevin, I like it, but not as much as on the phone
- Francine Hardaway
Yes, Kevin. Easy update
- Francine Hardaway
Very nice on my iPad Mini. Forces use of a security code if not there before
- Ian Waring
I agree with Francine
- Tom Guarriello
( The answers nobody cares ) A1 - oh man, we like to change our iphone colors every year and pic a 5 liters starbucks coffee with 0,001 cent donated to Africa because it makes us feell great to be such good citizens on top of tech fundamental changes in the market, that we can use to bomb Middle East aristocracies we support after everybody's dead of chemical weapons we sell better than iphones.
- flyinthesoup
Yea ive been on iOS 7 since beta 6 and i def like it. Each upgrade from 5->6->7 each time has had meaningful change
- Matthew Voshell
John T. is right. Our phones are now our "main" computers. everything else has to measure up
- Tina Chase Gillmor
It is hard to keep a connection
- Robert Scoble
My sister lives 2 blocks from 5th Ave Apple store, seeing Italian ladies in heels and furs buy Macbook Air at 15 minutes after midnight on New Years day drives home the popularity of brand.
- clive boulton
The Home Button is bigger :)
- Nir Ben Yona
Ian: Forces use of security for 4G/3G models only I think
- Ankush Narula
little plug for Dots!
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I have a 3G mini, so that aligns
- Ian Waring
shoutout to John for he DOTS game
- Matthew Voshell
Ian: it's for Activation Lock
- Ankush Narula
iOS7 is not available for original iPads. They've been orphaned.
- Murray Macdonald
Not as visible as getting shiny, new sneakers
- christina sponselli
if you put the case on backwards, can you still play dots?
- Kevin Marks
Murray: iOS 7 requires dual core processors I believe
- Ankush Narula
John Borthwick has some work to do on his Dots moves score to catch up to me ;-)
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Poor Robert misses the contextual stuff. Can't hear this
- Francine Hardaway
@Ankush They Need to change that strategy
- Moe Glitz
Scoble - your video is out again
- Tina Chase Gillmor
The latest Android updates still run on single core devices. Surely Apple could have supported single core devices, but it wouldn't have driven new sales like orphaning millions of devices will.
- Murray Macdonald
Flock already does what John is talking about...
- Matt Hicks
@Moe - I think it's ok to end of life products after 3 years
- Ankush Narula
at least consumer products
- Ankush Narula
Loved this quote from John Gruber: "......the iPhone 5S is, in some measures, computationally superior to the top-of-the-line MacBook Pro from just five years ago. In your fucking pocket."
- Alex de Soto
Anyone seen a preview of the new BBM App for Android or iOS?
- Moe Glitz
Alex ... yes, that is so right
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Apple had a 2x2 matrix for Mac: portable/desktop vs consumer/professional. IPad is GoOd/Better/Best vs LivingRoom/MobileProfessional (wifi only vs wifi+4G). iPad2s still selling well today
- Ian Waring
Dang Scobleizer in Central Park
- clive boulton
One smartphone has more processing power than all of NASA did when it landed astronauts on the moon. It's not the processing power - it's what you do with it.
- John Taschek
The best camera is the one in your pocket.
- Murray Macdonald
The 1020 is great...but Windows is a fatal viral brand
- Tom Guarriello
Most people don't know innovation and if they do it scares them
- Francine Hardaway
Moto X only good for the 6% of the mobile population WW - USA only
- Ian Waring
Let's send Scoble into the Plaza Hotel. Is Tradder Vic's still there?
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Have we covered Apple and Android and iPhone 18 ways from Sunday - how about workday and salesforce partnership being more closely integrated?
- Ed Schlesinger
Lumia + CyanogenMod = win?
- Ian Waring
How about Chromecast kicking ass? Seems to have legs.
- Murray Macdonald
I just realized robert was on an iphone 5S. i thought he was on his MotoX
- Matthew Voshell
is he in Central park? He's gonna get mugged if he keeps looking so aloof
- Ed Schlesinger
wow he is back!
- Matthew Voshell
Weather looks to be nice in NYC. I miss New York in the fall. Just don't get proper seasons here in Northern California
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Android 3rd platform to reach 1 billion. iOS should reach billion next yr http://www.asymco.com/2013...
- clive boulton
Steve and I lived close to where Scoble is right now
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I was just there last weekend it was actually warm but it was grea out...
- Matthew Voshell
It is beautiful here Tina ... 72 degrees with 40% humidity. Been like this all week
- Ed Schlesinger
Chromecast will dent MS xbox and Sony sales of living room TV hubs...
- Ian Waring
( The answers nobody cares ) A2 - we 're looking after every bellybutton contextual apps we can so we can forget about ourselves and concentrate on stats that make us closer to wall street gods and this m6 device is a Huge mind blowing step ahead.
- flyinthesoup
Tina: PLEASE - I'd take the weather in the valley over the weather in NYC any day
- Ankush Narula
It's not mindblowing. People are lining up all over the world because ________ This is what branding is about.
- Tom Guarriello
Totally agree with Robert.
- Nir Ben Yona
They should have treadmills at the Apple Store lines.
- Alex de Soto
Plus, the economy has improved, too. Money to buy new phones.
- christina sponselli
show us some central park
- Ed Schlesinger
There were no killer graphics apps on display in the Bristol Apple store today; I really wanted to see how well Cyclone behaved but there was no way to try it out. Seems Apple are playing down the 5S hardware
- Roger Shepherd
sheeple stood in line cuz that's what they do
- Frank Paynter
I miss the pulse of NYC sometimes
- Tina Chase Gillmor
They stand in line to get Nike products.
- Murray Macdonald
Tina - that's definitely what keeps me here - but love SF for a nice change of pace
- Ankush Narula
Frank, sheeple make winning brands what they are. Why are so many people so disdainful of successful brands?
- Tom Guarriello
M7 is Nike's next platform (a definite maybe)
- clive boulton
my wife dragged me out to NJ 28 years ago. My heart still beats a little faster once I go over the Verrazano Bridge. Could be the smog ... could be because I'm going home or could be just going into NYC (Staten Island doesn't count)
- Ed Schlesinger
Who can take a bite out of Apple? (I just wanted to say bite and apple together ;-) )
- Tina Chase Gillmor
I recommend the book "Buyology" which touches on this type of consumerism.
- Murray Macdonald
Murray, that book is wildly overhyped, btw.
- Tom Guarriello
is robert using the slomo feature? ha
- Matthew Voshell
Burst mode and slow mo on the 5S camera rocks.
- Alex de Soto
London does that for me.
- Kevin Marks
The M7 will be the differentiator for Apple on lifestyle apps. Lifestyle has always been Apple's wedge. It will be even a bigger deal.
- John Taschek
Scoble sounds like he's AutoTuned or something
- Tina Chase Gillmor
@tom: Have you read it? It's great.
- Murray Macdonald
retail is fine. love branding as a concept, but I'm more interested in the functionality and life cycle than I am in applauding the fan boys
- Frank Paynter
@Ed I understand the buzz driving in NYC
- clive boulton
Tina - you are right.
- John Taschek
I have read it. Too much research to discuss here.
- Tom Guarriello
They are immune. Market share from the top end at will, big gap down to Xiaomi, thenAndroid ROMs then no-one
- Ian Waring
I was born in NY, and every time I go back there I love it but am glad I don't live there.
- Francine Hardaway
Robert: but your Moto X only recognizes your voice
- Ankush Narula
Francine... agree
- Tina Chase Gillmor
The downside of pulse is inconvenience
- Francine Hardaway
EVERYONE is from NY
- Ed Schlesinger
Francine, living an hour from NYC is perfect for me
- Tom Guarriello
10471 -- yay
- clive boulton
Inconvenience in NYC? Hhhmm
- Ankush Narula
that is where I am - about an hour.
- Ed Schlesinger
Never been to NYC, but am ex-DEC. Maynard, Mass anyone?
- Ian Waring
well, NYC is THE CITY, Ed
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Congress is asking about Apple Fingerprint security. http://www.razorianfly.com/2013...
- Murray Macdonald
Tom, living an hour from NYC is practically like living in Phoenix. my bro lives in NJ an hour from NY
- Francine Hardaway
see USAToday article today
- Ed Schlesinger
so true Francine
- Ed Schlesinger
Francine, I live in NJ and teach in NYC; it ain't Phoenix!
- Tom Guarriello
Sirens in NYC... always
- Tina Chase Gillmor
An hour west of London here
- Ian Waring
i don't hear sirens
- Ed Schlesinger
My daughter lives in West London: Chiwick
- Francine Hardaway
Apple isn't ahead on WifiDirect. Apple is still refusing to support the standard.
- Murray Macdonald
Murray: Apple calls it AirDrop
- Ankush Narula
That's why I fear to go to MotoX. I just love the Apple Store though
- Francine Hardaway
In China, can't run Google Services at all on Androd. US blinkers!
- Ian Waring
Francine, is she a Fulham supporter??
- Tom Guarriello
Tom, no idea
- Francine Hardaway
Try living in the Bay Area (or NJ) without a car - then tell me about convenience :-)
- Ankush Narula
Ankush: But it doesn't support the standard or allow true P2P application development.
- Murray Macdonald
Ask her. It's such a big deal there.
- Tom Guarriello
I will.
- Francine Hardaway
Chiswick is Queens Park Rangers land
- Ian Waring
Murray: Apple does stuff for Apple - not open standards - just sayin
- Ankush Narula
Ah, thanks, Ian.
- Tom Guarriello
The selling style at Apple has changed from Steve Jobs' sharp salesmanship to the subtle, calm but passionate Jony Ive style. I don't think we should expect Tim to do the "selling." The employees at the Apple Stores seem to be enthralled by him and at the same time have a very critical eye on his every move.
- Alex de Soto
we are definitely in a software golden age. good concept
- Ed Schlesinger
Good episode name: "Smokin' My Own Kool-Aid"
- Ankush Narula
( the answers nobody cares ) A3 - the ultimate contextual app HW & SW meshup is a social stimulated suppository with ass blowing capability that you multitask around making gestures to increase your reputation based on how many times your twitted in yourfriends social networks.
- flyinthesoup
... and if you are smoking your cool aid you already smoked the good shit
- Ed Schlesinger
I like using my tablet more than my phone for sure
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Ankush: And Sony pushed BETA rather than VHS for the same reasons. Standards win in the end.
- Murray Macdonald
(It's really between QPR and Fulham, also close to Chelsea
- Ian Waring
NYC E-ZPasses read all over! http://www.forbes.com/sites...
- clive boulton
QPR survived last year thanks to 'Arry!
- Tom Guarriello
Murray: And there are at least 100M iOS devices w/AirDrop capability deployed
- Ankush Narula
They got relegated
- Ian Waring
Wow you can see the studio wall colors better today ( not that that matters)
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Murray: I'm not agreeing w/Apple's approach but it is what it is
- Ankush Narula
Most Apps don't use 64 bits. All apps will have to be recompiled before 64 bits will mean anything to end users.
- Murray Macdonald
With my home town team, Reading
- Ian Waring
