Jobs Hint He’s to the right of the woman in the white dress Credit Wayne Sutton
He wasn’t lining up for an interview with Ryan Seacrest about what designer made
his suit but a few eagle-eyed bloggers on location at the 82nd Academy Awards on
Sunday evening say that Apple CEO Steve Jobs was in attendance In a tux not a
black turtleneck Blogger and Web video personality Wayne Sutton snapped a
far-away shot of someone whom he believed to be Jobs accompanied with OMG it’s
Steve Jobs I’m the only one yelling at him Indeed Sutton’s photo shows Jobs
unmistakable profile filing into the Kodak Theater in Hollywood CNET has placed
an inquiry to Apple PR to verify that it is indeed him Jobs has a famous
satire-blog impersonator after all Jobs has reason to be at the Oscars and it
has nothing to do with the fact that he once got played onscreen by actor Noah
Wylie in a made-for-TV movie the Apple CEO acquired animation studio Pixar in
1986 before selling it to Disney two decades later He’s now the largest
individual shareholder in Disney the Pixar film Up was nominated for the Best
Animated Feature and Best Picture category this year But Jobs is also an
ambiguous powerful figure in the entertainment industry Movie sales and rentals
in Apple’s iTunes Store required extensive negotiations something that the
public debut of its iPad tablet device next month may render even more
complicated Its Apple TV device has been one of the company’s more low-profile
products but with the cable industry in more turmoil than ever namely the battle
between Cablevision and the Disney-owned ABC it could be Apple’s turn to flex a
bigger muscle in video and broadcast entertainment That could make for some
interesting conversation at Oscar afterparties But at least for now Jobs evening
is probably focused on Up UPDATE 5:15 p_m PT Twitter user John Chu nabbed a
picture at the Oscars with Steve Jobs more or less proving that it actually is
Steve Jobs UPDATE 5:54 p_m PT A commercial for the iPad making public its April
3 release date ran during the Oscars though that’s not necessarily correlated
with Jobs attendance The ad ran in the commercial break following Christoph
Waltz’s acceptance of the Best Supporting Actor award for Inglorious Basterds
UPDATE 5:59 p_m PT Up has won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature UPDATE 6:23
p_m PT Here’s somebody’s grainy screen-grab of the video which is currently the
only version of the first-ever iPad TV advertisement that’s online UPDATE 6:47
p_m PT The video of the iPad ad is live but not embeddable on Apple’s Web site
The song playing in the ad is There Goes My Love by a Danish band called The
Blue Van from its 2008 album Man Up UPDATE 7:14 p_m PT The iPad commercial has
