They would beat and then bury the pranksters with a pile of GSIIs, Nexts and old iPhone carcasses, then cover their tracks with Qik videos from other locations. </p>JoeDuckMon, 09 Jun 2008 19:15:30 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-623741<p>Thanks -- yes, I thought that was very clever of me :-)</p>mathewiMon, 09 Jun 2008 14:58:05 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-623686<p>I like how you climbed on the Apple bandwagon by trying to stay off the bandwagon. Sort of like writing a post about the demise of comments in which you hope that people will leave comments. :)<br></p>Mark EvansMon, 09 Jun 2008 14:51:42 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-623293<p>Yes, I remember that -- I still think it was kind of funny :-)<br>Ironically, the Gizmodo coverage seems to be relatively<br>straightforward and business-like, with the odd piece of commentary,<br>while Engadget is tossing in editorial comments all over the place<br>about how the demos are "crazy boring."</p>mathewiMon, 09 Jun 2008 14:03:06 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-623252<p>TC up and doing play by plays...</p><p>Matt - I'm still pissed at Gizmodo for making other CES bloggers look like the juvenile pranksters they were at that show, though I think you and I were twitter arguing about that back then as you were enjoying it ....</p>JoeDuckMon, 09 Jun 2008 13:57:56 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-623010<p>I'm a big fan of Gizmodo when it comes to this stuff -- auto-refreshes<br>and good coverage as well. Nothing too fancy, just bullet points,<br>some impressions and some photos.</p>mathewiMon, 09 Jun 2008 13:28:06 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-622995<p>for 99% of the bloggers out there I don't imagine there is really any point in posting anything due to the Apple noise - call it a blogger's long weekend.</p><p>*YAWN*</p>StevenHodsonMon, 09 Jun 2008 13:26:35 -0000http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2008/06/09/any-point-in-not-writing-about-apple/#comment-622988<p>Where are you following the news?
