Hello Donna The first thing they talked about was the AppleTV. It's going to have HBO added to it now. I forgot when is going to come available.
Next, as far as I can remember, they talked about the MacBook. It's going to be lighter and the keyboard is going to come out to the very edges of it. They talked about the changes in the keyboard. They also talked about the trackpad and how you can press on it differently to do scrolling. The new MacBook Pros are going to have some of this too. For those partially sighted among us, the keyboard is going to have LEDs under all the keys. They also talked about more battery life for the MacBooks. They talked about programs for the iPhone and health research for things like Parkinson's disease and diabetes. It was explained how the sensors on the phone would communicate to researchers the information for them to gather data. Apple won't get the information. They talked a whole lot about the Apple Watch. A lot of what they said about the Apple Watch we heard the last time. We have, by the way, a new update to the iPhone, version 8.2. It adds for you to pair with your Apple Watch when it comes out in April. I did notice that again Siri did open her speakers and respond when the presenter held up the Apple watch and said "Hey Siri." So I still haven't heard it talk yet. If I am in North Park Mall after April whatever, I'll check it out and let you guys know, unless of course, someone else finds out sooner. I suppose this keynote is now on the web site.
