I guess new iPad and maybe a new Pencil, that's it. WWDC is less than 3 months away, I think new Macs will be announced during the conference.
Maybe they'll announce the shipment date for AirPower, but honestly I don't give a damn about it, I already have some Qi chargers at home.

I’m just hoping for a more reflective exchange rate across the board! $1,400 equivalent for a 64gb iPhone X is no joke
I don’t think it’s a flat 15% across the board. It’s a few dollars here and there.
I expect no major product updates. Wish people would stop over-hyping this ‘event’. You are only going to be disappointed later on.
They already do that, you get 10% off if you're enrolled in a school.
A standard #2 pencil is 190mm (7.5”) long and 7mm wide.
An Apple Pencil is 176mm (6.9”) long and 9mm wide.
How much more “pencil-sized” would you like?

If it results in increased educational sales and profits they would.
Well if I look around me right now in my class, it's more than 50% macbooks, about 10% iPad's, 20% pen and paper and the other 20% is windows laptops. Literally zero chromebooks. I get that it's a small sample size, but I doubt it's much different in other colleges/universities.
I recognize and don’t disagree with that, as I teach at a university.
My assumption, however, is that an educational event would be focused on institutions and bulk purchases (e.g. primary schools or districts), though I could be wrong. In that respect, Apple is barely even a competitor.

And be yellow!Needs to be hexagonal
Well they will be releasing something new then, perhaps an iPhone iPad or Mac, who knows perhaps even as a bundle. A low-cost iPad will appeal just as much to non-education markets as the education ones I'd imagine as a lot of people don't want to fork out for an iPad Pro, same with a lower cost iPhone.
I aim to please.
I’d really like to see an updated Air, but I won’t get my hopes up.
I predict that Apple is going to release updates to ALL of their products, drop their prices by 30%, come out with a new version of iOS that has a magical new UI which will allow you to run macOS apps, and include a free puppy or kitten with every purchase!
Almost certain to do so considering their Apple Watch band announcement last week - I think the iPhone always gets silicone cases in the colours of the Sport Bands.
