In episode 4 of the Chris & Ray Show Neil Perrin of geekwithglasses.net joins us for a debriefing of today’s Apple Keynote.

There are a few things we are excited about like the newly introduced HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography capabilities for the iPhone 4 and the game Sword.

As a whole we were all pretty depressed about the “one more hobby” announcement for Apple TV and taken aback by Steve Job’s insinuation that podcasts are “amateur hour.” In fact, podcasts is no longer a category header in the user interface. It is now under Internet. There are also a slew of other concerns we have about the new Apple TV.

Finally, we were pretty indifferent to Ping, Apple’s new social media music platform. It seems cool, but will it allow users to listen to full songs if they “ping” one?

At the time of this podcast recording, which was recorded immediately after the keynote, none of us had installed iTunes 10 yet so we will have to wait and see.
