This makes me even more excited!
I hope all the rumors are wrong because, frankly, all the rumors bore me. If all they have is iRadio and a flatter UI then I am going to be disappointed.

lol no ... ill never get an android for the fact alone that i hate its update cycle but the ui of their apps is so much better and with the time while the iphone calender and mail apps look like a retro toy from 2007 by now.
im no longer even using Safari nor mail etc on my iPad / iPhone but instead replaced them with its google and other 3rd party counterparts.
praying ill see some new, updated and fresher looking apps tmrw
personally i love the Google Now ui the most

So a company that eats, drinks and sleeps simplicity is going to provide 2 versions of iOS because Ive & Co. don't know how to make something that is full featured but also simple to use? Or the mainstream isn't interested in having quicker access to things like wifi and Bluetooth?
Let me be clear on this: if he knows nothing, he should just keep quiet instead of fishing for Daring Fireball website hits.
I am tired of these so-called "pundits" who know as much as any of us do, yet keep trying to surround themselves in an aura of "holier than thou" knowledge just because they are friends with one or two Apple employees.
Whatever he said means nothing and cannot be proven either way...in other words, as relevant as any other rumor expressed in this thread.
There's no problem with 10.10. That's not a decimal point, it's just a dot separating two numbers. If it were a decimal point, what would you make of 10.8.4? How about the current version of Chrome which is 27.0.1453.110?

How was Apple's old YouTube app better than what we have now? And yeah I think something like Google Now is loads better than any Apple app.
I'm actually having a hard time determining whether this was complete sarcasm or an insane fantasy world you live in. You mean to tell me the YouTube app that Apple made, the one that had almost zero functionality, is better than the latest app from Google? Have you even tried the latest one? Good luck having a single person agree with you on this one because I'd assume even the biggest Apple fanboys would have a hard time saying that.
Usually his comments are things like "yep" and "nope" when referring to specific rumors. He's been pretty accurate in that regard. I think he gave the "nope" treatment to the "iPhone 5 will have NFC" rumor that was getting significant traction last year.
Gruber didn't post an article about this on his blog. I heard it because I'm subscribed to his podcast. He literally spent less than a minute talking about it. He certanly wasn't trying to pass it off as him knowing something no one else does.

U trolling bro?

Yes, but their UI use the same basic standards. They get tweaked for iPad, but it's nothing as drastic as the difference with desktop.
Take the iWork suite for example. Of course they tweak each app for either iPad or iPhone screen size to be optimal, but apart from that tweaking, their basic "functionnality" and everything under the hood remain the same because the devices share some fundamental ressemblance hardware wise and in the way we use them.
Also, the point is not only to have app that "work" on every devices, you want apps that are "optimal" to every devices. Mac are great because Pages app for example try to be optimal considering the hardware and interface devices you have on a Desktop/notebook computer. If you simply took the "logic" of Pages for iOS and just tweaked it to work in a windows with maybe a bit smaller buttons, it would be usable, it would work, but really it wouldn't be optimal, it wouldn't be a truly great product to use.
Apple are great and are different from MS in part because they don't do these "half-ass" products, they don't normally ship product that are merely "ok and functionnal".
Perhaps all he was told was that "Rumor X is wrong" with no other details such as why it's wrong and what will be introduced instead. There's not much else to say about that. Anyway, people complained about all the leaks and mocked Tim Cook for saying that he had "doubled down" on leaks after the iPhone 5 details leaked out. Now it seems like maybe he was serious and they really have tightened the clamps.
And none of that has to do with merging of iOS and OSX.
And FTY the UI standards *should* be the same across iOS and OSX but that doesn't mean Springboard of Finder should be identical.
There is much more to an OS than Springboard or finder.
Gruber has earned to say what ever he pleases. Right or wrong he gets Apple better than anyone who writes about Apple. Gruber and Jim Dalrymple are the best at what they do.
Also he didn't post this on Macrumors, Eric Slivka did.

Yeah didnt sound like he was told much. I didn't get the impression he was holding anything back. Even Jim Dalrymple seems to be in the dark. I think Cook & Co. were pissed with all the leaks last year and this year are making sure the contents of these keynotes aren't known before they start.
I'm not sure how anyone can say the new youtube is better now with all those ads? I don't use youtube that often anymore since they started those stupid pre-video ads. In the future they will remove the option to skip.
Is he wrong for having an opinion? When I looked at how clocks look on Android, the only thing that came up to my mind was that they were lazy but pretending not to be by making it flat. I, for one, do not want all skeuomorphic elements to be eliminated, that's the other side of the extreme.
Your sir have my atmost respect. And here is my like although you deserve more of them
I'd venture to guess that Google would say it's better since it's Tripled their Ad Revenue.

That is if you can believe tech sites.
