Ugh, today was the day I was going to order a MBP. Now that I have seen this I can't update until iLife 11 and iWork 11 come out.
Darn.
Darn.
Got a tip for us?

iLife '11 Coming in August with a New Mystery Application?
- Thread starter MacRumors
- Start date
- Sort by reaction score
I'd like to be able to have a live jam with other GarageBand users via the internet.
edit: and chickens... it needs chickens (I still miss Jam Session)
I'll be getting my Mac in mid-late August. I hope iLife '11 is out by then, so it comes with my Mac.
Most iChat people I've encountered use the screen sharing capability to collaborate on something. It's sort of like WebEx but with no cost involved.
Good to hear. Hopefully, it comes out soon so that I can gripe and get my disk!
Sigh
Leopard: PPC and x86 compatible.
Snow Leopard: x86-only.
I'd wager this will be x-86 only too.
I thought leopard was intel only as well also it is as 64bit as snow leopard is for most of us still
I hope that apple switch the startup kernels over in an upcoming os upgrade, it would force devs to start developing for 100% 64bit systems.

Exactly. And iChat will either be renamed FaceTime or have FaceTime integrated into it. Apple won't sell FaceTime as part of iLife.
While an iOS application builder would be interesting it would flood a niche market and may possibly take away the ability for app developers to make money. This may negatively impact the system as every Joe and Jane would be throwing out apps.
As if there's not enough crap on the App Store now
It would also mean (I assume) creating a developer account and paying to submit apps to the store. I'm not sure the demand's there.
Well I talked to a CS rep at Apple saying that I was going to order a MBP but saw rumors that iLife and iWork were on the way. I got the expected "We can't speculate on that." and then I pressed on saying I knew she couldn't confirm anything, asking if I would just be out of luck if this were to happen. Again, the expected "I can't talk until it is officially announced."
Meh, it was worth a shot to at least see. I'm definitely pissed, because I have beenwanting to order on for a while and I finally can, only to find this. I don't want to have to pay anything extra for some features coming out for free in two weeks, but I really wanted to get my MacBook this week so I could learn the ins and outs of it before college in three weeks and so that I could Play SC2 this week.
I'm not really good at bartering, so I don't know how I would fare at complaining to CS for a free/cheap copy of iWork and iLife 11.

I would love to see a GarageBand version for iPad, that syncs with the desktop version. Add the ability to connect USB audio interfaces with the camera connector, and I will be a happy camper.
Mystery App
For me, the killer app would be financial! I would love for an apple authored financial software to complete the iLife package. None of the financial apps out there now quite fit the bill for me.

That's brilliant. Quicken for Mac and the latest Quicken Essentiala lacks a lot of features that their Windows counterpart offers. This would make the most cents
.You might be surprised by the amount of creativity that goes into the management of my finances!
NOOO iDVD can't go lol, I love iDVD use it all the time to make slideshows for Media at college and clients and its just easily burn it onto disk tis great
You're right, Mac4Ever has just updated their statement. The source speaks for the 17th of August, not the 7th.
But Photoshop already is the pinnacle, how could Apple improve on it? Really now, I don't want the Apple fanboy rhetoric. Photoshop is already customisable. It (as if this is some kind of feature) looks good, it's very usable, powerful, good with resources.
Lightroom was far from perfect when Aperture was launched. There was a hole in the market. There isn't for Photoshop.
Look at the other applications Apple made to compete - Pages and Numbers. Neither of which are better than MS Office's versions (on PC at least, haven't used the Mac versions).
