Here ’s the full list of features 9to5Mac has heard will make it to Apple ’s SpaceTime Thing :
• The twist will tie in MobileMe with an Apple built - in active DNS system . For instance , if your MobileMe account was “ 9to5mac ” , your field name would be “ 9to5mac.me.com ” . This is how you ’d reach your filesystem throughout the cyberspace . Your media would also domiciliate here .
• Built in AFP filesharing for Time Machine backup man and centralized data file store .
• iTunes shared Library Database for not just music , but also video . accession over the net to all of your media .
• Photo database and tie in with with MobileMe .
• Sharing medium with iPod Touch and iPhones both over the cyberspace and while at home . AppleTV as well .
• The box will be free-base on the Time Machine platform ( ARM ) , not a more expensive Intel / Leopard Server configuration .
• lot of power delivery features like work off tough drive when not in role .
• Multiple hard drive form would be made uncommitted with RAID 5 redundance .
Essentially , easy centralised media share-out and admission — let in television — not just over your home internet , but over the net , for all of your computers and iThings , plus a multi - drive backup waiter . Interestingly , it ’ll be running on the Time Machine political program , not as a Leopard host . Questions left to answer : How will it interface with Windows loge ? Will you need a MobileMe report ? ( Seems so . It would make the service a much good time value proposition , and perhaps a must - buy . )
The larger picture makes sentience to us , even if some of the point do n’t turn out quite right : Apple ( main)streamlined backup and mass medium cyclosis over the home connection , this seems like a logical pace from its Time Capsule , particularly since they ’ve got a clustering of the infrastructure in place . Constant memory access to your stuff from anywhere , like Apple ’s rendering of Windows Home Server . What would you want to see in an Apple SpaceTime Capsule media waiter thinger ?
