Apple’s iPhone 3G S. You don’t have to be a developer to appreciate Apple’s seasonal unveiling of new products. Here are five takeaways any Mac user can understand: There was no Kindle-crushing Apple “tablet” or oversized iPhone … … but there were hints at one to come. Snow Leopard, a $29 update to the Mac OS X operating system coming in a few months, will allow for Chinese characters to be drawn with a notebook trackpad, translating them on the fly into computer type. A resurgence in Apple’s vaunted handwriting technologies may be a prelude to the end of keyboards as we know them. For now, we’ll have to settle for Apple’s updated line of MacBook Pro notebooks. There was, however, a new iPhone model. Meet the iPhone 3G S. While virtually indistinguishable in looks from the current model, the new 3G S claims dramatically increased power under the hood, a longer-lasting battery, and a water-resistant finish. It also packs a 3MP video camera, allowing you to shoot and edit within the device, and even upload and share the results on YouTube. Skateboarding dogs and piano-playing cats, it’s your curtain call.
