Cringely notes Apple's movie page is marked forbidden

Tags: , , , ,


Regular readers of this blog know that we always enjoy Robert X. Cringely over at PBS for his insights on the technology industry. In this week's column, Cringely notes at the very end of his discussion of Google's announcement this week, that going to http://www.apple.com/movies gives a "Forbidden" message instead of "Page not found". While this may not have anything to do with Tuesday's announcement which is rumored to be mainly about new non-video iPods, Powerbooks, and Power Macs, it does bode well for Apple someday announcing its move into video that Cringely also predicted.

Just adding fuel to the fire, Gizmodo reports that the BBC apparently also leaked a video iPod TV ad as well.
