This is Steve Jobs' baby--he's going to be there to give the keynote.

I like John Gruber's take on it. Interesting piece to note in a footnote on his response: "I could publish things I’m only half-sure about, like the iPad 2 switching from aluminum to a lightweight high-strength carbon fiber body, but I don’t, be…

For a lot of people who don't care, you all seem to care deeply about letting others know how you feel. I'm loving my current iPad and it's on the market now to fund the cost of the new one I'll be picking up. Can't wait to see what iOS 5.0 has …

Hallelujah! That's all I've been asking for. Increased screen and lower price is perfect. Looks like I'll be hitting the Apple Refurbished Store this week.

Only thing I can come up with is that they're adding something significant and expensive enough to require the jump in prices in the higher end models. Could be material (Carbon Fiber, LiquidMetal, etc) or maybe quad-core chips, since they only have…

And when are we going to get an iMac refresh? That's what I'm waiting for in particular. Hopefully they'll come in at the same time.

I definitely agree with HTC's award. They well-deserve it. With solid hardware, good support and longer-term update distribution, as well as being on most of the carriers, they really did come out of nowhere to become one of the top phone developers.

I vote that any app with In-App Purchases present you with the option to turn them on upon first run (similar to notifications) and then place an option to disable IAP for each individual app in its pane the Settings app. That would solve all issues…
