OS X iPhone and OS X Leopard Banners at WWDC

200+ posts and we still struggle with perspective. IS THIS NOT THE EXACT SAME TYPE OF PICTURE WE ORIGINALLY SAW WHEN WWDC '08 WAS ANNOUNCED?

http://www.melamorsicata.it/mela/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/iphone-wwdc-08.jpg

you tell me that this picture and the banner picture are different, I know, the iPhone isn't centered, but the iphone with a MACBOOK AIR behind it is pretty obvious. If this isn't enough evidence, oh well, rumors make people loose touch of reality around here, myself included, I just knew I have seen that photo before.

Lets get real here people! Apple is not going to display a picture of a new product 3 days before the event for everyone to see!

Its a GRAPHIC of the Macbook Air. It is not going to look like a perfect photograph.

If the picture was it then that means the new iPhone is going to be about the size of a person.

I Second that!

it's about time we start calming down it really IS just a graphic rendering of the MacBook Air. It's not 100% exact!

But we'll get something soon... I just hope we'll be blown away...

I take offense to that :rolleyes: i USED to be an unemployed, penniless, filthy student ... and it was Apple that made me penniless!
 
Has there been any other Apple events where the products on the banners were different then the products introduced during the keynote speech? The iphone pictured in the banner looks exactly like the current version and there is no front facing camera.
 
hey, I dont want to make anyone angry by bringing up the air again, but just in case in hadnt been posted 9to5mac thinks its airs with new a new 16:9 14 inch screen! head over there to see. Im sorry if this has already been posted.

Is it just me or is the iPhone in front of the Air waaaay to big to be an iPhone? Looks like a 7" display to me. Maybe it's just an optical illusion.

shut up. its a NORMAL iPhone and its a NORMAL MBA. Apple isn't stupid enough to give anything away in a FREAKING BANNER.

That's what I love about the MacRumors bunch; we're all good-natured... except for the people who complain when "their" line isn't updated when there isn't a CPU to upgrade to.:p

:p Btw newton 2.0 on Monday. :eek: :apple:
 
Its gonna be all about mobile platforms.

The banners are featuring the most mobile and connected of Apples products.

This is a developers conference. It will be focused on the Mobile platforms for the developers.

The iPhone Fund has recently just started giving out funds for development. Most developers are gonna be focused on this anyway, its where the MAJOR cash is.

Apple also needs to move iPhone along in development for business use in order to keep its lead in the smartphone/mobile computing market.

This one is all about mobile. Hence no iMac or MacPros on banners
This could also explain the lack of "Mac" before OS X, OS X is no longer soley Mac Centric

Pretty.

I'll re-phrase. When you start to decipher color schemes of a badly photographed banner ad in bad lighting from across a room at an off-angle for meaning of new product releases then you're really reading into things.

Touche' Well said.
 
I can't believe the hype starters are trying to prove that there is a new MB or something on the banner.

The same posts screaming about how the conference was a disappointment and no new toys were announced and it was all about the iPhone and there wasn't even an iPhone 3G.

At the end of the keynote all of their faces will look like this:

Hell look at all the "photos" of Bigfoot etc. they have TV shows dedicated to them.
