Could be me watching way to much Star Trek this weekend though as well. If there’s anything that will make you feel positive and excited about the future it’s Star Trek, even the original series which I’ve been watching since Thursday (the 50th anniversary). It’s a real hoot to watch the old show and see how much stuff we have today that’s better than they portrayed on the show. I’d rather have my iPhone than the communicator any day, IBM has successfully beamed photons and pure elements, you’ve got the sprays the doctor uses in wide use now and on and on, it’s so cool!

Its that its all up in the air until it becomes the present. And the present is where we get things done. I prefer to work on present day issues, like my embosser which has now been relegated to being a door stop. Since I cannot look into the future to see where my new embosser is and when I will get it, I will move to other present day issues. Its more productive to live in the moment. From E.T.'s Keyboard...

I love the creativity of it all, the moving forward, change does not scare me it thrills me. The status quo to me is the weak way out.

Don't we have enough things to keep us occupied today? I sure do. As to Apple talling about next year, well, since no one has the crystal ball, this will do. About the NDA, are you saying that only the blind/visually impaired are accepted into the beta program? Makes not a bit of sense. Back to today... From E.T.'s Keyboard...

There is supposed to be this NDA hush-hush. But everything is all over the mainstream press. The only exception is access ability, because the mainstream doesn't care about it. And we're not supposed to talk about it, because some people still think there's an actual NDA in effect. It only affects us.

We used to have no idea what was coming out until much closer to the events. Anybody remember the cell phones apple left around the bay area to create publicity? The first was a legitimate mistake where an engineer left his phone in a bar and it wasn’t out yet. The next year that happened though was faked / staged. Now you have a picture of the new phone almost as soon as the present model is released.
