And for the first time...
And for the first time time, after years of silently browsing through the thousands of macrumors.com articles, I wished that all the rumours around the new iPhone 6 would have never emerged and that I would have never seen any of the rumours involved around it.
I am actually so excited for this phone, that I truly believe that Apple deserves a launch, where people are waiting feverishly for the WWDC to start, with absolutely no idea of what this amazing company has to offer next.
Back then, when Apple launched new products, people would still fall off their seats cheering and screaming. Now, the WWDC has become a place of just getting the confirmation of the facts, that have already been out there in the wild way before the WWDC.
Of course, with childish anticipation will I be following the macrumors.com site in the future as well, but here I am thinking to my myself, that sometimes not knowing is just a heck of a lot more exciting than knowing. As Philip W. Schiller stormed the stage with the MacPro presentation and when I heard him say: "Can't innovate anymore, my A**", I felt a little guilty about reading all the rumours around their products, knowing that maybe Innovation is often innovative to begin with, because it is in a way still 'magical' and we are pleasantly surprised.
Of course, there is the option that all the all the rumours actually help Apple to decrease marketing costs and basically surf on the wave of rumours and use its momentum to gain public traction for its products.
...I guess, all I am trying to say is: Apple is still the magician that conquered my geeky heart years back and sometimes (if not all the time..hahaha) a magician deserves to perform his tricks, without the audience knowing how it is done.
