Steve Jobs have captured hearts and minds with his Macworld San Fran 2006 presentation (I got it as a torrent for iPod). I’ve seen posts about it all over the place, some praising his presentation skills (Guy Kawasaki), some commenting on the Intel insides of the new MacBook Pro.
There’s a ton of new stuff coming from Apple, but the interesting bit is below. Steve Jobs included one HDV camera in the presentation: the Sony HC1 .
More robust cameras like Panasonic HVX200 and Canon XL H1 shouldn’t feel threaten though. I’d imagine Steve included it because HC1 is an ultra-affordable HDV cam at the $1,500 range, truly a remarkable achievement for Sony. Apple should really look up to Sony - I want them to take one of Sony’s LCDs and put it on the next generation of video iPods, so that they play movies.
As to Steve, what can I say… great minds think alike. I did a review of the Sony Hc1 just a day before Steve 
Update: Kevin Smith touts HVX200, so Sony HC1 is not the only “winner”.
