People need to relax and read more carefully. We usually only hear from Oppenheimer during earrings calls, the next one which is scheduled for October. He was just giving us a teaser to say, "Big things are coming, but I don't want to say more until the next earnings report." This impacts no other rumors about when things will be released.
Lol, obviously. Apple has barely released anything the last 9 months. This cramming stuff in the fall plan is kinda dumb but what do i know right?
Fall release schedule for a lot of their products (new MacBook Pros, Mac Pros, iPhone 5S, iPad 5, OS X Mavericks, etc) is perfect for the holiday season. Everything will be fresh and new.
Who wants an iPhone 5S???? Myself and many others would rather have a completely redesigned iPhone 6 with a larger screen.
Don't take this the wrong way, but exactly which part is unexpected? The fact that they are releasing products in fall? Given that it's been a dry year, I don't think it comes as a surprise
At this point we are only assuming that it will be a 5S because that is the pattern that they have set for the last several releases. There is nothing to say that they won't release a 6 besides the fact that the alleged parts leaks don't seem to indicate a larger screen is imminent. But, if Tim Cook has locked down on secrecy it could happen. But, at this point it is highly unlikely that we will see a major form factor change this year.

I was thinking more about the surprise that was the Mac Pro announcement. I don't think people saw that coming the way it did. Obviously, we knew a new MP was coming, but the secrecy seemed much stricter.
I'm saying that I hope that there are things coming this Fall that we haven't picked up on yet. Maybe the rumors have it covered, but I'm hoping for a surprise. Not in the fact that there are updates or even new products, but in the details, similar to the MP announcement.
Also, the Logic Pro X thing caught me unaware, so I'm hoping there's more of that kind of thing to come.
The new iMacs came out in December, 2012. I wouldn't expect any update this year. Haswell is really ALL about the mobile world, and the difference between a desktop 3770 Ivy Bridge and a 4770 Haswell is quite small. You might be waiting a while, is all I'm saying.
1) Update to 802.11ac
2) Update to PCIe SSD
3) Update to the latest NVIDIA Graphics
4) Haswell Processors
5) Thunderbolt 2
6) Update to 1080p Camera
Not enough?
At the very least, I would anticipate update to wifi in line with the TC and the MBAs. Might just be a small spec bump but it will happen. Like it did with the MBPs earlier this year.

Hmmm.. no mention of MacPros. Guess we live off the reveal for a few years before they ship.
Right at the beginning of the call at 2.10 they confirmed Mac Pros by the end of the year.
Or both.
Given that they are unlikely to launch everything on the same day there could be launches in Sept and Oct
Fingers crossed for the release of the new Mini until october 4th. I live in Brazil and I'll be traveling to the US at the end of september.
If they don't release the new Mini by then, I"ll have to buy the late 2012 model

Frustrated. I'm waiting for the 13" rMBP refresh. Can't help but feel the same way at times.
Just update the goddamn iPod Classic already. Soooo looooong overdue. 220GB 1,8" drives are available since 2011 - go get them, Apple!
I have been talking about replacing my Late 2007 MacBook since 2010. Thanks Apple...the ride never ends.
Since when have Apple EVER released products when "WE" think there's "enough" to justify it? Count me in for a new iMac (despite owning a decked-out 2012) if all those updates happen. I sincerely doubt it will, but hey, I'd LOVE to be wrong.
Lol, if you've NEVER owned a smartphone or tablet... it doesn't matter if they're "good" or not. You'd be blown away by an iPhone 4 & an original iPad.
So basically...
After my moog and logic X purchase I can't spend a nickel until product release day. Well I needed to go on a diet anyway. But...then. After all that apple stuff like the macpro supercan. A LaCie t-bolt external ssd. Then.. New BOOBS!

I'm beginning to doubt Apples sincerity.
Profit taking has taken over as they've continued to rake in the big bucks thanks to the ongoing sales of old tech like the iPhone 4.
As far as the bragging about an "Army of new products" ?
I'll believe it when I see it.
