You forgot about iTunes 8 built around Cocoa. I see this happening as developers already said a new versions of iTunes is needed for 2.0 and with a launch this big I think they would jump to 8 and not a dot release.

If they do iTunes in Cocoa it'll come with a replacement to Quicktime AKA "Core Media", but that'll need some time in beta first.

Can't wait for WWDC this year, its shaping up to be a good one.

As previously posted, this is what I'd like to see:

- The release of v2.0 & coincidentally iTunes 8.0 (both available to download hours after the keynote)

Software enhancements I'd like to see implemented in v2.0:

- Mail/Safari: Saving of a photo or attachment from Mail.app
- iPhone OS: Copy & Paste
- Safari: Tag/keyword searching within Safari.app (Spotlight search integration)
- iPhone OS: Option to move the docks position on-screen
- Homescreen: Option to change icon of webclip after adding clip to homescreen
- iPhone OS: Option to have new mail alerts display in iPod status bar
- iPhone OS: Option to enter CloverFlow view for Tv Shows/Movies
- iPhone OS: Screensaver Option within Settings menu
- Applications: iChat ported to iPhone (Apple)
- Applications: Touch Fighter bundled (Apple - as previewed during the March 6th event)
- Applications: TouchFx bundled (Apple - as previewed during the March 6th event) - possibly 'Photobooth-like' UI.

General announcements I'm hoping for within the WWDC conference:

- UK & Canadian iTunes Movie Rentals launched
- Song prices reduced from 79p to 71p (as promised last year) - Store-wide

Revisions of hardware i'm hoping for:

- 64Gb iPod touch (SSD)
- 3G iPhone (GPS)

I realise WWDC is a developer-focused event, so most of this is just wishful thinking, but ..

Not gonna happen. Developers are still getting beta versions of OS 2.0 just a week before the keynote, don't expect OS 2.0 to go live until developers get the final version, and probably at least a week after that.

[fishkorp]

iTunes 8 will require Quicktime 8, which has been delayed, no? I'm guessing iTunes 7.6 is what we'll see for the update.

i doubt the iphone 2.0 updates will change the SDK that much, apple has been using the same thing to develop apps since iphone firmware 1.0

also didnt stop apple for leopard updates
apple seeded a test build of 10.5.3 on the 27 may
10.5.3 was made public via software update THE VERY NEXT DAY, 24 hours after the final seed of the beta

[ArtOfWarfare]

Go make yourself a countdown widget... geez, with dashcode you can do it in less than a minute. Open dashcode, choose countdown template, enter 9th of June for the date. Done. If you really want to you can throw in some graphics and choose a bell or whistle to go off on the date.

[newyorksole]

Ahhh I can't wait, I'm so anxious, what sucks is that I have to take the SAT on saturday and also have projects due this week, so it'll probably be a long week.

Then Steve Jobs is effectively breaking a publicly stated goal as it pushes 10.6 to 18-24 months at a minimum from today, which is 24 to 30 months after the release of Leopard.

He's not going to reveal in a public press release that he's going to talk about a new version of Mac OS X ;).

[neven]

Don't set yourself up for a disappointment, people - it's highly unlikely that we'll hear about 10.6. The 12-18-month schedule won't be sustained. So Steve will go back on his previous statement - big whoop.

I'd love to be proven wrong. But I'm not going to go expecting it on faith and end up disappointed when it doesn't happen.

[Eraserhead]

The 12-18-month schedule won't be sustained.

Why not? Last time they were delayed by the iPhone and Mac OS X Intel.

Frankly if it isn't sustained they won't get an OS out until Windows 7 is due which given Apple's far superior API would be seriously worrying.

[AceFernalld]

Exactly 7 days, 20 hours, 1 minute, and 12 seconds until the keynote starts.

It all goes down 1PM EST June 9th, 2008.

I'm hoping for an OSX iPhone 2.0 release a few hours after WWDC.

[DreamPod]

10.5.3 was made public via software update THE VERY NEXT DAY, 24 hours after the final seed of the beta

So far every beta release of the iPhone OS 2.0 has required a new release of the SDK and changes, some major, to any App written for the SDK to make them work with it. Beta 5, for example, they completely changed how touch-detection works, removed library support for detecting swipes (so developers had to write their own swipe-detection code), and changed very basic OpenGL stuff that *every* OpenGL app uses.

As for Leopard updates, that's not the same thing - one of the two big features of iPhone OS 2.0 is the App Store for third-party apps, but no apps can be released unless developers have the final SDK in advance. The only way it could work would be if Apple decided to just release the newest beta as final.

I remember a few years ago about the 12-18 month release cycle, but it being as the OS matures the releases will be LESS frequent. I'd like to hear a mention of 10.6 next week but as for it's release, I'd see it being fully demoed in January 2009, then it being released between June 2009 and November 2009. I mean really. We JUST got Leopard.

I actually think there is a small chance for a preview of 10.6.

If anything, I expect 10.6 to include significant touch interactivity... especially if Apple is serious about releasing a slightly-bigger-than-iphone tablet thingy that has recently been rumored about again (or any other machine whose design lends itself to touch interactivity...)

Though MS showed off some touch goods (weak touch goods at that) at D6, I don't think Apple will take this as pressure to show off their touch os any sooner than they plan to. It seems that they only show things when they're good and ready.

But, one has to wonder.. what if they were that much closer to being "good and ready" (this year) than any of us anticipated?

Cheers,

DCBass

Don't believe WWDC is going to happen, not until someone posts some shaky photo's of covered banners and an elevator shot with a blurry photoshopped tablet.

You obviously missed the elevator picture with the new iPhone. It happened during the commerical shoot at the 5th Ave store last week.

Also, this picture was crystal clear, there have been advancements on the elevator shots believe it or not. The banners are still to been seen.

[Chris Bangle]

BANNERS... The fun of intense analysis of absent hidden meanings. I cant wait...

10.6 is inevitable surely, two bridges, two operating systems, they wouldnt linger on leopard, this is apple and they look to the future.. and 10.6 better have touchscreen stuff like someone suggested.

When can we see some banners????

[rayward]

i would like for them to show some 10.6 stuff, but
is iPhone firmware 2.0 being released at WWDC or are we gonna have to wait a couple more weeks after WWDC?

If the 3G model is "available now" then so will the 2.0 firmware. It's possible that the firmware will be available before the 3G model, but it cannot be the other way around.

I suspect that both will be available immediately after Jobs' keynote. We'll know better closer to the time if Apple stores are closing in preparation of the iPhone launch. It's also possible that he'll debut the stuff, and tell us it'll be available on iDay2, sometime in late June as previously indicated.

I plan to upgrade, but not straight away. So, while I'm anxious to find out what's coming, I'm not too worried about the release date. Of course, as soon as I see what the 3G can do, I'm sure I'll want one straight away...

I don't know, it would seem pretty nuts to release the 3G iPhone and delay the 2.0 update. Then again this is all assuming the 3G iPhone will be available immeadiately, or shortly there after.

Either way I have to wait till payday for my iPhone. :(

... they've already talked a lot about iPhone v2 software and the App Store. I think they may spend as much as a quarter of the presentation on it but most certainly no more... Apple's got to have some more tricks up its sleve...

Mac OS X.6
A tablet?
A iPhone Nano? Maybe an iPhone Jr. like I suggested (a smaller, weaker, very cheap iPhone that's only available with the purchase a full iPhone... it has a joint data plan with its "Parent iPhone".)

The revamped .mac.

I am planning to switch to AT&T (Chicago) and have read rumors of the new iPhone , which would prompt me to wait till June 9th. I'm assuming the 9th is the announcement date and the launch date will be later. When I walked into my local AT&T store and said I was thinking of switch carriers but will wait till the 9th for the 3G version, the sales rep looked at me like I had just told him I shot his mother. "That's like in 5 days!". I would assume AT&T prepares their sales force for releases such as these?

haha, I love the imagery.

They would prep them, but without a product announcement, at this point it is all speculation. Apple is pretty tight lipped about new products, so there is no way they would let it trickle down to lowly AT&T salespeople.

They will likely give them some heads up before the launch, but after an official announcement.

Thanks for the reply. I figured it would but you never know.

I did think of one more question. In regards to taking pics with the iPhone, when you email a pic you take with the phone, does the pic show up in the body of the email or is there a link to the pic. I wonder because I love taking snapshots of the kids and then send them to friends and family.

Yes.

But you can only do 1 at a time.

At least with the current software...

[citron230]

this is getting exciting! :D

Or you all could just use the "Keynote widget"

It displays the time left before the next keynote will begin.

I would if I had a Mac, but I've got a PC, unfortunately. I use a countdown gadget set to 1PM June 9th (EST) so I'm all good. I simply do my updates for the pure sake of anticipation, and for all the people who get a fix out of coming onto this thread, including myself :D

Great thread, OP!

This thread is better. Because it has seconds :)

Plus, this thread was here before they put the countdown up, but then again, MacRumors was here before this thread was here, and we're posting on MacRumors.. Ehh, whatever. I still prefer this thread :cool:

Edit: PLUS, our countdowns have colors and Apple logos and are better looking. Jeez, get off my case! Just kidding. I'm hyper, apologies.

I can't wait until tomorrow to see what Steve announces at tomorrow's keynote at WWDC. I really want him to announce the new iphone, with 3G and a better camera.

If he does announce it then when will we be seeing it in the UK for sale?

[radiogod69]

[Eric Lewis]

YEA!!!
Anything else, would be uncivilized!!:D

Why is everyone speculating a June 9th launch? Didn't the AT&T email say employees can't take off June 15th-July? This leads me to believe it'll be a June 16th launch. All though I would really really like a launch tomorrow, got the money ready and gas in the car.

Yeh I do!

Really can't wait for it and can't wait to watch Steve's keynote tomorrow night.

I'd say the 20th, I'd think they'd like to keep it on a Friday.

Launch can mean announcement. Keynote is tomorrow, so in that sense it is nigh on guaranteed.

Could Monday come a little faster.....PLEASE!!!! I have been waiting to get this 2nd version iPhone since last June because i was stuck in a contract with verizon and wanted to wait for the 2nd one.


Yeh I've been waiting for the Iphone 2 since March 2008 and when the new one is out I am just going to buy the one with the most memory hopefully 32GB. I hope they have a contract option of £20/£25 or Pay as you go.

[AceFernalld]

I've got $60 of iTunes saved up for the v2.0 upgrade and some cool new applications :cool:

:apple:21h 21m 21s:apple:

[friekunater]

I'm not really sure what WWDC is exactly, but from what I've heard it sounds like developers teaching other developers tricks to... developing.

so, in my opinion, they wouldn't release 2.0 until a while after WWDC to give the developers time to work their newly-learned tricks into their iPhone apps!

[ArtOfWarfare]

I think I'll set awaken to play promenade at 6:00 tomorrow... :)

Edit: That's the time I expect the stevenotes to be available online.

(I just started using Awaken... it's proving itself to be very nifty... I've used it as a timer for food... an alarm clock to wake me up... a reminder of a wi-fi tournament I played in yesterday... and a reminder that it's time to go to church today. :D Very useful program! That Mac Heist II bundle was full of a lot of great stuff!)

[rssfed23]

Its annoying - I'l be at work when the keynote is on!
.....I'l be meeting Bon Jovi + Staff (or just staff not sure if he's in tomorrow) but rather have the iPhone any day!

[Watabou]

Yep. I got $300 saved up just for the iPhone. If its just 199, then I can go buy a case for it! Come on WWDC!

Maybe Bon Jovia likes Apple - if you have the feeds running he might want to check for all we know (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WEQda4346I) ;)

[mmoosa]

are you guys gonna watch the live blog with pics n stuff, or wait to watch the keynote stream and witness it with all the 'extras':)

[zenntench_oni]

YAY! all i have to do is deal with work later on today and it will be tomorrow :) 4pm - 10pm and i hope the day goes by fast

[newyorksole]

I have to work tomorrow 3-7 UGHHH

Work is gonna piss me off, I know it. I won't even be able to check news until I get home from school, since I don't have an iPhone to keep up with the coverage.

Tomorrow better go by quiiick.

[Carbonic]

Ugh, I really want the new iPhone to be released tomorrow, but I have a friend who is acting manager for two weeks or whatever, and he said they haven't even received shipment (He works at ATT) He said he finds out tomorrow when they're going to be out (Obviously.) and that it'll be released in a few weeks (?)...

[Watabou]

For me, it will be the live coverage from this site and then wait for the keynote stream. I hope this is the longest WWDC :)

Anyone know if Macrumors live coverage has pics? Then again, I will have three tabs open to Engadget and some other site's live coverage + macrumors. Yeah. That's what i will do.

[mmoosa]

jeez, these last hours are just not moving fast enough.

[adamerr]
