3...I would say either depending on how you look at it the relationship between the units. If forced to guess I would say a lighter (float) MacBook Pro.
I don't buy this "European guy" moniker ... you know the language too well. Not just the subjective but the subjunctive. Although you mistake keen for kin, unless you know the language so well that you are exercising James Joyce like wordplay, in which case this reader is duly impressed. I've been reading "Finnegans Wake" all day and this riddle is nearly as obscure ...
But back to the riddle ...
1. Has been answered as the N standard for wireless
2. Has been answered as an 8 core Mac Pro
3. I'm guess that the next of keen is a fourth display, 17" in size
4. As for floating, Apple redesigns the monitors so that they float like the old luxor lamp iMac. (Or, second chance guess, the iMac is redesigned to do this.)
And if I got any of this right, all this Joyce decrypting today has done my brain some good ...
First off , thanks for the comments. I am really Portuguese and I have been speaking english for more than 2 decades, still with the obnoxious habit of not using a spell checker...
I DO get the difference between american and british English, since I have repeatedly visited both countries... yeesss... I am over 40..
Back to the riddle.
3. Wrong. Already answered.
4. No.
I must say that I personally believe the displays will be updated...but the bird didn't mention it, so...

This has to refer to the iMac revision.. LED-based screens?

OS X resolution independence?

Hi ! Thanks.
No, the "Zoom" has no software parts...
Change of view...

Aren't the LED screens more useful in the portable line (starting with the Pro model, off course) because of energy savings?
"Hey little bird" I inquired
African or European?
iMac follows the Mac Pro and will wait until Leopard and get high DPI display.
4. a new imac design that somehow makes it a lot quieter, so instead of making a zoom noise it is so quiet it seems to be floating....
i think i better wait till the keynote starts
BTW, have you got any information we don't or is this just something to have fun
3. new iMac.
4. Unresolved yet.
I have the information the little bird told me.
I was blown away. But, I , too, will only know after MacWord.
African or European?

Hmm... No !
Does it involve a touchscreen? An answer, perhaps, to HP's new Windows Vista touch-screen iMac knockoff?
Sorry , No hints, Grasshopper...
Float = tablet?
Grasshoper..the path is full of shadows and light, but I see no hinting in sight.
PS have to agrre with the other comments, a much better way to pass those pre-stevenote hours than trawling through countless re-hashed rumours!
