What are they up to?

They being Apple, of course. If you haven't seen it yet, check out their home page. This from a company who has somewhat of a history of setting a very high expectations bar?

So what's coming? Seems like too much hype for a simple dual quad-core machine, or the iTV, or even any form of video iPod. Is it a 30th Anniversary Mac? A tablet? An ultra portable? Something else entirely? Nothing at all? Feel free to comment with your thoughts...

Whatever it is, it should be a most interesting keynote speech next week!

Macworld logoUpdate: I said I'd get better at this, and I'm off to a bad start. I actually wrote up my predictions for the "big news" in the keynote in a piece for macworld.com last week. My hope? Definitely for something in the ultra-small category, perhaps functioning as a tablet as well as a laptop...and designed in such a way as to be befitting it's title of 30th Anniversary Mac :).

I'm off to San Francisco today, and I'm anticipating a great show, regardless of what Apple may or may not reveal on Tuesday. I've not seen such a great collection of new hardware and software from the other Expo vendors in many years (just based on the exhibitor list and the flurry of press releases thus far). It should be an exciting week. Check macworld.com for regular updates from everyone attending, and I'll try my best to remember to cross-link anything I write over here.

  1. In 2007, you'll see why the future looks a little bit like the beginning of "2001." But with an apple logo instead of the moon.

    Personally, I'm hoping for Newton II.

  2. I hope to see a cutting edge piece of hardware and can't wait for the Leopard OS X to set the Windows OS dates back another 2 or 3 years!!!
