Just asked Jim Dalrymple whether he thinks the logo is referring to an iWatch (due to roman numerals, shapes and colours) or something much subtler like a UI redesign. @jdalrymple: @StellarSoul2001 I think UI, but who knows.
I personally think it could be either or both. Guess I'll weigh in with my thoughts and predictions from most to least likely. Just based on the logo.
1) UI redesign across iOS and possibly OSX. New system wide font, flatter graphics and logos, a lot more simplicity and colour. Some subtle system animations.
2) Stacked app icon graphic refers to headless apps. Sandboxing as we have come to know it will be a thing of the past as inter app communication is given much more priority.
3) The iWatch! In all seriousness. To me the square iPod nano was a not so subtle iWatch test product. Clearly the public responded with a lot of demand. It's shape is still remarkable and beautiful. I think Apple will refine it slightly to be thinner and more minimalistic. The shapes on the logo are like apps yes, but why the multiple colours? To me, colours/shapes and roman numerals means iWatch.
Cook said:We will continue to focus on the long term, and we remain very optimistic about our future. Were participating in large and growing markets. We see great opportunities in front of us, particularly given the long-term prospects of the smartphone and tablet markets, the strength of our incredible ecosystem which we plan to continue to augment with services, our plans for expanded distribution, and the potential of exciting new product categories.
Gruber said:Tablets, phones, and computers are product categories, in Apple parlance. So hes not talking about a new iPad or iPhone, hes talking about an entirely new leg on the stool.
I think it's more the presence of the Roman numerals themselves. And where would one be most likely to see Roman numerals on a typical day? On the face of a watch, perhaps?The reflection reads MMXIII and stands for 2013 in Roman... I don't get what all the fuzz is about.
The number at the bottom of the logo can only mean one thing. Apple is skipping OS XI and XII and going straight to XIII.
That will show people who say that Apple needs to innovate more!
Imagine what would happen if Apple released everything realistically coming down the pipe all at once:
1. Haswell Macbooks
2. A new Mac Pro
3. Preview for OS XI or next OS X update
4. Preview/release iOS7 w/ Ive redesign
5. App Store for Apple TV
6. Preview of iWork 2014, Aperture 4, & iLife 2014
7. resdesigned iPads/retina minis
The internet would pretty much explode.
One can dream.....
while I am at it splitting itunes into a media app and a sync app would be great as well. Ok, back to real life now
Who thinks Apple is going to announce a phone at WWDC.![]()
I have a good friend who lives in Cupertino and both of us have been looking forward to the new Mac Pro for a LONG time (well before the disaster of an upgrade last year). To say that we're looking forward to it would be a great understatement.
It's probably about 7am there right now, so I decided to send him this text along with the attached image:
DUDE, look at the WWDC logo!!! What do you see in there??? www.apple.com/macpro

LOL, he bought it, hook, line, and sinker. In all fairness, we'll probably see an announcement for it anyway at WWDC, but hell...I couldn't resist.
New iPhones have been announced at WWDC in the past so it's not implausible t say the new iPhone could be announced at WWC this year. Sure the main focus is software, API's and software development at the WWDC's but hardware has been mentioned in the past at the keynotes. And could be this year too.
can some1 enlighten me....
Since apple will release WWDC video after the event, whats the point for developers to pay so much to go for the event?
I don't like the text font and shape, reminds me to Windows Phone...
Is this this kind of result realized with?Saturation?Or just a P.Shop artwork?
And after..be disappointed.
I'm keeping my expectations really low.
I'd love to see a new Mac Pro or a Retina Quad Core Air
or a 13" Retina with a real Gpu...not to mention I.Tv or I.Watch..
but it won't happen...quite for sure i fear.
Take a closer look at that poster. It's suggesting that instead of neat grid of icons on the Home screen it will be one huge untidy stack of icons. New. Different. Innovative.
Time to buy Apple stock! ...
Apple has a WWDC link up on apple.com
Of course Wall Street will still be disappointed because no new gadgets will be announced.
