    This means, of course, that there will be a new iMac and a new iPod.



    Kill the bunnies!

    Sculley was going to announce a radical new concept in mobile computing; a handheld device that had handwriting recognition, ran a powerful object orientated OS that could link data intelligently and connect to a myriad of communications technologies.



    Then someone reminded him that he had in fact did this 10 years ago in a package that was oversized and overpriced that very few people bought and was kicked in the face by a glorified Sharp Wizard-like "Palm Pilot" so we went back home.

    No hint of it on any tech or general news sites I checked and searched, I also visited a few corporate websites for companies he's affiliated with. NADA. NOTHING. ZILCH.

    Sculley's announcement:

    "Read my lips. THERE IS NO G5!"

    I fully expect for there to be a Sculley announcement, just because Think Secret's stuff was pretty much on the money. I already did a scan for Sculley the other night and came back with very few things dated 2002, so maybe he's been out of the eye of the press for a while...who knows?



    We'll find out when he's ready to tell us.
