The only thing I’m really excited about is the integration of Flickr and Facebook with iPhoto ‘09.  That’s going to make my life a lot easier, since I use both services often.  Otherwise, the new iLife and iWork suites are pretty much a yawn.  I don’t really know anyone who uses iWork–I have to use Office (or Open Office) for work purposes.

The non-removable battery in the 17″ MacBook Pro is absolutely ridiculous to me.  $179 for replacement, though they claim it won’t need to be replaced for 5 years.  Apple has not figured out yet that non-removable batteries are a pain in the ass.  I can buy them on an iPod or iPhone (just barely) but on a laptop computer I think it’s the worst idea EVER.  Way to go for making sure I will never scrape up the $2700 for a giant MBP, Apple.  The new MacBooks are much more exciting to me anyway.

I expected to see a Mac Mini or Apple TV refresh during this keynote, and was sorely disappointed to see neither.  I was so upset that I had to drive straight to the Apple Store after work that night and buy myself an Apple TV as a consolation prize.
