On your last point I think you can get stereo sound out of the HomePod if you want to folk over $700 for two of them.
Apple invented the "Pro" line on all their products and hiked prices by over £150!!!!! Clowns
Same will happen to the new iphone.. add "Pro" and sell it for sub thousand. You wait
As addressed in the keynote, the iMac Pro uses modular design which means some inner parts ARE inner-changeable
May finally be time to ditch my iPad air and go for a new 10.5 pro.
No new desktops I am interested in.
iOS and MacOS updates look interesting.
While this WWDC was much better IMHO than last years, after 2.5 hours of Keynote the above is about all that caught my eye.

More like burned it up...unless you run one of those things in an air conditioned office, it's toast. so much for using field-deployable Macs to run things like shows and rides.
Probably how a lot of people with 2 to 3-year-old iPads feel at the moment. I think it makes sense to wait until next year when the iPad Pro adopts the new iPhone design, a little smaller/lighter with the same 10.5" display, possibly OLED.
Hmmm, I missed that...
User changeable? Or Apple-can-swap for more apple-overpriced-upgrades?

Saw that, and wondered the same thing. These don't bounce. Aesthetics over practicality again.
There is now a wireless keyboard with numeric keys available... finally!
Prices have gotten (even more) ridiculous in Sweden. The base MacBook/MacBook Pro 128 starts at an equivalent of $1790! Crazy!
Won't be true stereo, unless you can send one channel to each speaker. But I'm an outlier - I like uncompressed music (even 320kbps is noticeable). We're a long long way from Steve's love of high-sound.
On the MBP's, I still don't have a compelling reason to upgrade my 2013's....and that's pretty sad. Meh performance bump , worse battery life, gimmick touchbar, and a bleh keyboard. Hopefully we'll get something good this fall or next spring with Cannonlake and another redesign.
Proudly writing this from a dual-core Power Mac G5.
12 years in, and it's still steadily moving along at a great pace. Like the Disney Monorail System.
You can't say the same for a 2006 iMac, or a 2007 MacBook Pro, *or* a 2008 mini (probably), among some others.

Keep in mind that US prices don't include the ~20% VAT that most EU countries impose.
It'll be interesting to see how they implement it. I know on the Bose SoundTouch 10 which is a mono speaker it does discreet stereo channels if you pair both of them. I believe Sonos works the same way.
I don't think Apple is concerned with stereo sound because if they were they would sell an accessory speaker that looked the same without the 'brain" in it.
I am aware, however it still doesn't explain why prices were raised $120 over last years models, while the exchange rate has remained about the same.
The features all better work! LoL...I kept my iPad Air 2 because I figured with the 2GB of RAM and it being comparable to the New iPad 9.7'' for CPU it should be good for iOS 11 and maybe even 12. I was tempted for a Pro but unless you're going to draw I don't know what the point is. I'm using a $6 Logitech tablet keyboard that was clearanced out at Best Buy with my Air 2 and it works great. Although mouse support would get me to upgrade to any of the new iPads.
No USB-C in the iPad Pro's? I thought they mentioned that after talking about the 10.5" and showed some adapters...
lightning to USB-C adapters are what they mentioned, not USB-c ports
How much for the iMac Pro in UK currency please? I did a currency conversion but it still might be more due to exchange rate. I’ve got my eyes on this beast!
Prices actually came down in Canada for the base 13" 'Pro' from CAD $1900 to $1730.
Still way too much in my opinion considering what else can be had for that kind of money.
Be patient. If you are in the U.S you will see plenty of 200$ off sales of the 256GB base models. July 4th is a highly likely occasion.
