MacWorld 2007 was a lot of fun and quite crowded! The new Apple iPhone is pretty incredible - it runs Mac OS X! Quite possibly the technology used for the touch screen came from Apple's rumored acquisition of FingerWorks, a company which previously produced the multi-touch iGesture pad and keyboard. Hordes of people were gathered around the phone which was spinning inside a plastic cylindrical podium and running through a demo.
The Apple TV also looks nice although it's not much cheaper than just buying a Mac Mini, and many people already achieve music streaming via Airport Express and AirTunes. The other most notable new product is Axiotron's ModBook which is being sold by Other World Computing. The Wacom based tablet screen seems to work very well, and Apple's Inkwell handwriting recognition is easier to use than with a separate Wacom tablet.
