Apple Shows Off New Line-up with Pixar!

News Toy Story 3

Today’s Apple presentation was no exception to "the Pixar rule."

It’s become somewhat of a tradition. Steve Jobs shows of his latest gadgets, and among other films, the latest from Pixar is used as an example of the product’s quality.

The new devices in question are the 2010 incarnations of the iPod touch and Apple TV. Toy Story 3 (now up for pre-order on the iTunes store) is seen above in publicity stills demonstrating features such as AirPlay and the Retina display.

Although it will be considerably less talked about, the most important innovation from today’s presentation (as far as Pixar is concerned) is the enhanced Apple TV. In my opinion, this is the future of how we rent movies. Just think about how many people can "discover" often overlooked films like A Bug’s Life with just a click of a button.

This kind of synergy proves once again that when you’ve got the best consumer electronics, you can’t settle for any less than Pixar perfect. After all, the company’s relationship with Jobs spans over two decades.

Note: This post is not meant to be proper coverage of Apple’s recent event. For more details on all of the latest products, don’t hesistate to visit Apple’s site.
