What's happened to confirmation of Jobs doing keynote?!

[robinp]

Normally, as in the past three years at least, Apple have confirmed that Steve Jobs will do the Keynote of Macworld by the first week of December. We are now in the third week and still no word from them... what's going on?

Been waiting for new Mac Pro's for a while now. Want that Nehalem

It is strange and very few rumours too. I can't see Macworld passing without any new products though. Perhaps they want to tone things down a little in the current economic climate.

Who else would do the Stevenote?

Shiller might step up again.

That's probably the most logical explanation that will come out of this thread.

If Steve isn't up to it, whoever does the keynote will probably be Steves successor when he steps down.

a great mark twain quote that. Very amusing

so now we know. I thought the silence was ominous!

So when do we reckon Mac Pros are going to be updated? I'm beginning to get bored of waiting!

Whenever Intel release the Core i7 Xeons, some time in Q1.
