Being as the shape at the centre of the official announcement for the WWDC keynote looks like an Apple TV, I'm guessing the Apple TV will be part of what the keynote will be about. As well, it's not logical to claim not being ready to unveil a strea…

Is it 10 am Pacific or Eastern? The article says Pacific but the graphic shows 7 am Pacific which, of course, is 10 am Eastern. I have to assume it's 10 am Pacific because dragging WWDC participants out of bed early enough for a 7 am start is unl…

I have an iPod in my pocket that I use like a watch. Works fine, though I do have to reach into my pocket for the iPod, rather than glance at something mounted on my wrist. Perhaps Apple has not released a smart watch because it can't be made to m…

If increasing resolution causes more strain on the battery, increases the cost of the screen, taxes the processor, etc. is it not logical that there would have to be a benefit justifying such a move? Since there is none, it begs the question, why do…

Tim Cook has made a reference to October as a month to expect significant product announcements. My recollection is that is was during a media Q and A following a quarterly report.
-
What's especially amusing about downgradng Apple for failing to do more than release iPhone updates last week is that we were told months ago by Mr. Cook that announcements about innovative products would be comng in October. Even so, we've gotten i…

The timing of Apple's product releases has been historically about bringing a product to market when it's ready and not a second before. It's not about doing it the other way around, namely setting a date for a product release internally and then …

The Macbook Pro with Retina display comes with flash storage and no optical drive. What's left to move towards an Air design? You need power to properly run a Retina display on a laptop and as such an Air with Retina display would be precisely wh…

It's all about the user experience. If this product is as enjoyable to use as a larger IPad, it begs the question, why even have the bigger iPad. Even if the user experience is only marginally diminished due to the smaller screen, the advantages o…

What we have here is a photograph of a list that any one of us could have conjured up in less than an hour. It's just a piece of paper with some writing on it. That, combined with an 8GB device seeming highly unlikely, causes me to dismiss this ri…

Isn't it obvious that this list is a fake. An 8GB iPad is ridiculous. Never. You'd have to e daftto even consider buying sucha product if Apple offered it, which Apple would not.

Ok, so are we agreed that if we get to less than a week prior to Oct. 23 with no invitations issued, we can put this puppy to bed. Basically if it gets to this coming Thursday with no invite this will go down as one of finest practical jokes a com…

Are we there yet?

iPad Mini? What iPad Mini? What's interesting is just how long iPad Mini rumours are going to persist and how far they'll go. Even so, another week or so, surely to God, this nonsense will stop. Right?

So Oct. 10 is going, going, nearly gone and no invitations for an unveiling next week. What's up with that?
