More info on iTV

My boss gets to go every year. UGH. Never gives me the opportunity. So not fair

I would love to see an Apple created SmartPhone!

Ditto!!!! I need a PDA-GPS-Bluetooth-Camera-Video-Phone with a glowing apple on it!

I'd say the iPhone is 95% gonna happen. But I don't think it's gonna just be a fone (nor will it be called an iPhone). Anne's wishes are actually closer to the mark. I think it'll be an iPod of sorts that will handle all media with bluetooth and wireless capability. I've heard rumor that the new iPod may be able to communicate with bluetooth phones but won't be a phone itself.

They've been saying Spring for Leopard, but I'd expect a better date from Jobs today. I'd also expect more details on new features.

They've also got the new Quad-Core Xeon 5300 processors coming out. Supposed to be up to 50% faster than the current Quad-Core Xeon 5100s (in the Mac Pro currently).

Bigger displays (as in bigger than 30") are possible.

I believe we'll hear some more details on iTV.

I'm very interested in iWeb 2.0, which will ship in iLife 2007. It's supposed to be MAJORLY upgraded.

Now you know what I know. It ain't much.

Just found this after I wrote my post--very interesting:

Kevin, I use iWeb for my website and I am hoping for some flash integration. If anyone can make flash galleries easy and customizable, I am all over it. Compared to the competition my website looks deathly still. Currently, you can't even do an animated gif in iWeb. Hope all changes with iLife 07. I have confidence that Apple can do it right if they choose to go beyond the bare-bones features for template-based websites. I don't think they want to compete with Dreamweaver, but something a little more feature rich will help me out.

I've developed my web site in iWeb too and I did some flash integration. You are right, it is not supported but there is a work around. If you are interested to know about it, PM me.

iPhone/Applephone???

(fingers crossed)

Macworld and macworldexpo websites have been Slashdotted.

For the geekiest of all geeks... here's a live feed being updated from the audience by the MINUTE!!!!

A great big screen for all the greasy face and finger prints one could ever want!

we've been hloding off for a phone until we saw this, from what the site anne pointed too is saying, this is it

Looks awesome!! Hopefully some unlocked versions will hit the market. I'd love to have a Verizon version....

Whatever. I'll drop my cell contract in a heart-beat.

Ditto.

IPHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would too, if it wasn't for 'the network'. In Western Washington, Verizon is the only carrier with decent coverage off the beaten path. I like to hike, bike, kayak, ski, snowshoe (just got some for xmas, yay!) and I want a phone that keeps working even if I'm way off the interstate. As far as I know Verizon is it. Anyone from the Upper West coast have good luck with another carrier, I'm all ears!

I wouldn't hold my breath on unlocked ones floating around anytime soon. Cingular and Apple are gonna be exclusive for a few years at least and Cingular doesn't give away the unlocking code to easily. The few unlocked phones that do hit the market will be few and far between....that and even if you get an unlocked one some of the cool features (like graphic voicemail) will only work with cingular anyway.
