Comments
It was a nice effort; I'll give them that.
Yeah, the parts that rang "true" were the mentions of other apps and 3rd party software companies. That was pretty good.
What a concept - send the source code, not the executable - Apple will compile it, run it, test it, and sign it... with the source, they can use Instruments to see what it is doing. Very very nice.
Maybe I'm being scammed, but the iPhone SDK stuff sounds EXACTLY like what Apple would and should do. If it's true, I can't wait to get my hands on it. Objective-C/Cocoa and a chance to make money on the biggest download store? WOO-HOO!! I have several apps ready to go and some more planned.

I like a lot of the stuff here, too -- and I think they are good educated guesses -- I just don't think the Keynote is actually going to run down like this.
.....
- SDK is unveiled!
This was my first tip off. After all of those bland bullet points that seem somewhat believable, like what someone would really use to give a presentation, the "SDK is unveiled!" seemed a little fake. I mean, didn't we know this already?

This just make my heart sink.
Please calm my nerves someone. This keynote "draft" is a fake right?
As fake as websites claiming to have a live video stream of the keynote speech, yes.
Most predictions typically seem more rooted in "want" than in "likelyhood". At least this list doesn't seem to have fallen into that trap.
But hey, everyone is in the predictions game nowadays. One of the pittsburgh morning news shows ran a segment today on CES and MacWorld. Ironically, they only mentioned CES as a segue into MWSF. The local station's "expert" is predicting a 3G iphone and sub-notebook. A prediction that I view as wishful thinking rather than supported by evidence or even credible rumor.

Your gonna keep stabbing me even though I'm already dead on the ground rotting hmm??

If you were on the ground rotting, we'd plant mushrooms on you, not stab you.
What do you guys think? Why is no one focused on MBP upgrades? Apple gets higher margins from them, and the current design is very old...it makes sense to me...
Apple is not going to announce new MacBooks. Forget it. MB are brand new, low cost and *extremely* competitive. Expect Apple to squeeze much more life out of the MacBooks. Instead, expect Apple to announce a brand new MacBook Pro case design. The current design is completely unchanged for *5* years. I think it stands to reason that developing a new chassis that further distinguishes MBP from MB is necessary to capture the higher prices MBP garners. I would expect the MBP to have upgraded features like: a new multi-funtion track pad, slim case, higher res display, zoomable camera (just a guess), solid state drive options (only makes sense as an option for MBP due to the cost...unless Apple develops a custom Flash-based DIMM which would be *much* more cost effective).

Exactly. I don't know why so many people are obsessed with MB upgrades but a significant MBP upgrade makes perfect sense.
