I hope that all resources were not spend on iWork for iPad. I'm dying to see new iWork with cross-references, auto numbering of images/tables, etc. So I could finally get rid of OO.o/MSO for writing technical stuff. iWork is so much better in many a…

in Apple unveils new multi-touch version of iWork created for iPad Comment by wessan January 2010

I hope they'll release iWork 10 or 11 ASAP, because I'm looking forward to dump Word. Keynote and Numbers rock and beat MS Office to the ground for me. However Pages is missing features that are a must for technical documents such as auto-numbering …

in Sales of Apple's iWork office suite surge 50% in 2009 Comment by wessan December 2009

I highly doubt that iWork will go online. For several reasons: 1) iWork is designed to have high quality (print-ready) output that would not be very difficult to achieve in browsers for next several years 2) iWork is well integrated with OS X at l…

in Apple recruiting talent for iWork's transition to the cloud Comment by wessan December 2009

So lets bring something like iLP instead of iDVD. I would love to deliver DVD-like nicely packed content rather than a plain iMovie movie.

in Live from Apple's "It's Only Rock and Roll" event Comment by wessan September 2009

Would be nice to have something like Aperture Studio to compete with Adobe. Aperture is a great piece of SW and adding a second Photoshop-like application even not as good as Photoshop in its first version would maybe make Adobe thing about better O…

in Adobe abandons CS3 legacy support for Apple's Snow Leopard Comment by wessan August 2009

Any sign of new localizations? Bidirectional text support might mean that support for Hebrew and Arabic could be added. I really hope for more European languages support. Absence of built-in Czech localization is a show stopper for a lot of people h…

in Apple freezes Snow Leopard APIs as software nears final stretch Comment by wessan May 2009

I hope they split iPhone into 2 classes - one focused on being as small as possible (while keeping the same screen) and second with included a decent camera with glass lenses etc. I believe we could expect pretty cool photo applications with interes…

in iPhone 3.0 beta caught hiding video editing graphics? Comment by wessan April 2009

Outline editing feature for Keynote would be great start as there is not so much text in presentations and making last minute touches to presentation would be great if it was possible to present directly from iPhone. But I'm afraid that iPhone does …

in Microsoft optimistic about Office making its way to iPhone Comment by wessan April 2009

I personally hope there are some more languages coming in SL. Czech localization is available for years from third party, but it disables software updates and you have to uninstall it, update and then reinstall, which is not really a mac-like experi…

in Apple pushes devs to deliver 64-bit support with new Snow Leopard beta Comment by wessan April 2009

There should be high penalty is case of failure of such lawsuits if they are found to be just based on nothing solid and are just an almost risk-free attempt to make money. Let's say the target of such lawsuit could ask for such penalty (with reaso…

in Ballmer changes tune on iPhone, says no to Zune phone Comment by wessan January 2009

I believe that both iWork and iLife will be released together with Snow Leopard and show advantage of Grand Central/OpenCL in Leopard. I guess iWork and iLife are products that force Apple to release Show Leopard ASAP. We can expect Aperture 3, FIna…

in Microsoft sets sights on providing an Apple-like experience Comment by wessan July 2008

My guess is that 10.6 will be released to developers in September/October, so it will be ready for new Mac Touch unveiled during WWDC in January 2009. Features: extensive support for multitouch ZFS support (improved timemachine+filevault, local…
