It will be the year of disappointment if they don't deliver the 2X resolution screen.

Only the ignorant think that. Just not possible with today's tech to deliver twice the resolution at the price points they have established.
 
What if this means no revamped Macbook Pro until after the event? Wouldn't that seem like strange timing to release the new Macbook Pros on Thursday and then a week later host an event?

Not really. Do 'em both and really goose interest in Apple. Keep the announcements coming and people will notice.
 
iPad in the background, using the iPhone 4 Retina Display default background.

Wishful thinking?

man im bored of people wanting a retina display on the iPad is such a rediculous thing to want... its big enough to see everything fine... the resolution would be rediculous. Cost will sky rocket and its not even needed, the iPad screen is fine to me I can use it without complaints I see everything fine and in enough detail to cause no issue.
 
They are going to announce that, because of production delays and the failure to account for the Chinese New Year, the iPad 2 release has been pushed back to June and the iPhone 5 release has been pushed back to September.

j/k
 
Looks like the same design from that picture? This will probaly be the most underwhelming annoucement this year by apple.

I hope thee preview iOS 5.0... because they NEED to
 
Wait a minute!! ... Where are all those people that said the world wouldn't want a pad device around this time last year... where are you now?
 
It will be the year of disappointment if they don't deliver the 2X resolution screen.

Okay... have to ask... why? Why is the 2X res so important to you or it's a "fail"? The current iPad is right up there with the other announced tablets and as good as a laptop... so... is it just because the iPhone is so darn nice?
