Jobs describes iSync as a product people will "look back on as the start of something big." Cingular, Sony, Erickson, and Apple "share the vision thing" and work to integrate personal computer and mobile phones. Steve Carter of Cingular wireless calls it the "killer app" and applauds Apple "for embracing open-standards." * iPod for Windows is due in August with MusicMatch software for managing music. * Apple launches new larger 20GB iPod and reduces prices on older models. 5GB is now $299; 10GB model is $399 and 20GB is $499.

Events to all subscribed calendar events are overlayed over your own calendar. It offers search functions, automatic changes to Web-hosted versions, email notification of changes to calendar, and other options, including exchange of calendars via iChat. It is due as a free download in September and will work (only?) work with Jaguar * iTools has doubled members to 2.2 million members. iTools will be replaced by .Mac on September 30th. Apple is delivering what Microsoft's .NET couldn't: new .Mac services. It will include email (IMAP, POP, and Webmail), 100MB of iDisk ("extremely fast under Jaguar") with security features, new backup software, and new virus software. .Mac will be available in retail packaging.

Many improvements, including better handling of multiple email accounts, threading, instant searching in single or multiple mailboxes, and in-line playback of QuickTime moves . New Junk Mail feature is "coolest" feature of the Mail.app. The 'Training Mode' marks junk mail by coloring it and allows computer to learn by users' marking other mail as 'junk.' Automatic mode moves all junk mail to another folder (demo fails; Jobs unable to demonstrate feature). * Rendezvous technology: automatic discovery of devices on network without configuration. Due out in iTunes 6-9 months down the road ("early next year").

Real networks launches REALone player for OS X (as noted earlier today), including a demo of REALone player for OS X. * Jobs references OS X adoption rate issues raised by Macs. 2.5 million current Mac users. 77% of Mac users keep OS X as default . That means that 5 million OS X users by end of month. That means that 20% of Mac installed base will be using OS X in less 24 months. * Switch Campaign: 1.7 million unique visitors to Apple's "Switch" Website. 60% or 1 million visitors are from Mac.
