...and a $100 price drop "effective June 2008" (to prevent justifiable outry from people who just bought one for top-dollar). That way, they'll continue to sell them to people who are drooling because of the SDK and can't wait, and then a torrent of sales come June.
On second thought, that last point was dumb. Scratch that.
I'd like to see Apple drop its price of products over their lifecycle.
eg: If, in 4 months, the price of a 16GB whatever is going to drop $100 to accommodate a new 32GB whatever, would it be possible to drop the price $50 in 2 months, then another $50 in 4 months?
Since I don't think this story is all that newsworthy to begin with I'm going to contribute to the off topic banter... just so you know it wasn't without consideration.
Waiting on line, from an actual grammatical goddess rather than google (you'll have to scroll down for the section ragarding "on line".
I love the "shhh...it's a secret" line. Apple ought to cancel on them for blabbing!
When I read that "shh?it?s a secret," my first thought was that Apple told Shinoda to say it, for the explicit purpose of generating chatter about the event, of building up anticipation.
"unclear weather" is what we have here in Seattle. Try "unclear whether" next time. If you are going to be a professional journalist, run spell and grammar check at least. Deal?
Two problems with that . . . (1) a spelling checker would flag neither 'unclear' nor 'weather', and (2) what software checks for spells? Would I find it at Salem.com?
If you're going to correct a professional journalist, make sure no editor is behind you. ;-)
To be honest, the most logical date would be tomorrow since they have a day off and they're scheduled at the garden on thursday. Seems a little sudden though.
As for products, since Linkin Park is involved, it has to be the much anticipated iSuck.
A bunch of sources say that's a british term. But if it's not, that's even less support for the term.
How about this. I've never heard someone say "wait on line" here in England. (South-- Leicester and London areas.) Maybe particular areas might say it. But everywhere I've been use the term "queue". "Queue up" "queue jump" "where's the queue?".
Because we're all hoping that we will finally get to see what we really want as soon as possible whether it be new cinema displays or new macbook pros. We're tired of waiting and will look for any excuse for it to happen.
As far as Tuesday's event goes. It's not happening. There would have been invites by now.

That event is not in New York is it? I thought the SDK was going to debut then. What the hell is going on?
I'm confused....and a little scared.
Heck, they should be opening for Coheed.
Indeed they should.

Linkin Park: "It came in 1 gig but now it's 2 in the end that's two shuffle models!"
I mean come on a whole event around the shuffle would be glorious!
Not over here we don't. We Brits prefer to queue.

Is this metaphor? Are you trying to say that unclear weather is clouding the details of the event?
I think the author is dyslexic and meant to write 'nuclear weather', to indicate that the event will be explosive.

Very true, and Chiodos should be cleaning the toilets.
