Damn. I was hoping the would at least announce new macbook pros.... I personally don't care about any of that other stuff. Macbook Pros and Cinema Displays, PLEASE!
Just get used to it, you don't matter to the new and improved Apple.
Got a tip for us?

Not working on Macs, that's for sure.
The video was done by MacRumors, not Apple.
I know haters gonna hate, but personally I can't wait to upgrade from my 6 to a 7+. For those of us who prefer the 'S' devices (my 6 is my first non-S iPhone), the 7 is going to be like a 6SS, an absolute under-the-hood monster. Also, I take a lot of pictures with my phone, and the dual-lens setup in Apple's hands should yield impressive results. Combine this with the possibility of a water-resistant deep blue or black iPhone, and I am quite excited indeed. Just please don't raise the price, Apple!!
Hahaha. Do you work for Apple marketing? The shilling is taken to level 11 in this post...
All incremental. Is that the Apple way?
Removing the headphone jack at the very least is "envelope-pushing". As an owner of 3.5mm headphones I don't know if I like the move just yet, but I'll give props to Apple for doing something that they clearly think is just the right direction for phone hardware to go. I don't see that many bluetooth headphones out there in the world so it seems a little crazy right now.
Hopefully they will include a 3.5mm adapter as well!
Apple is on the decline. Maybe someday they will come out with new technology that everyone is excited for. That day will not be on the 7th.

No, but I just had to comment on the insanity of the Apple bashing. I suppose it's therapeutic in some capacity, but to ignore the significant improvements in just 12 months in the world's most successful consumer product, you have to be in some serious denial to feel "depressed" and confused about what they have been doing. And that's without knowing what else Apple will reveal when they show us the actual phone. Cheer up and if you are in the market for a new phone, enjoy the company of a couple hundred million happy people who will buy it.

Will this keynote have members of the public present or just members of the media? I suspect even the media are fanboys. I wonder what kind of fallout would occur when Tim/et al announce "We made the iPhone truly magical by saving another 1 mm by removing the 3.5 mm audio port..." I would wonder if that will be met with crickets or boos. I am hoping for the latter and love how Apple reacts to that bombshell (said in my Jeremy Clarkson voice)
Can I have the Chinese lady doing the voice-over again, so when it's underwhelming I don't even notice.
Apple will have its up and downs. That's good for consumers. We benefit when Apple feels the competition nipping at its heels. Maybe one day they will be go out of business. Right now they are the most valuable company in the world with the most revenue. The revenue they got just from services last quarter exceeded all Facebook's entire revenue.
This year's phone will have a lot of great improvements. So many people will be excited about different aspects of the new iPhone on the 7th that 60 to 70 million people will buy it in time for Christmas. Billions in profits just from this Christmas season. Just the facts.

Wait for the next round of announcements. They have been doing a lot of work on the Macs for sure

This is not even close to being an accurate explanation, so I will just assume you meant this sarcastically... You could have at least mentioned Apple's history of number-jumping operating system and software releases.
If they run another one of those awful "Apple Enriching People's Lives" propagandanista videos I'm gunna barf. I can feel the acid already rising in my throat..
Not likely. Apple has not even acknowledged the problem exists yet. And a KeyNote is very limited in time, being this is a hardware event, it's unlikely they would address this.
Anyone that thinks apple is on the decline is just guessing because they don't like what apple is doing or they insist on Apple providing products that they have determined to be the way to go. Whether we love their products or not, would you trust someone on MR to run Apple over Tim Cook? No... most negative posts here are childish, but some are great feedback.

Probably already answered but you'll get much better low-light photos and you'll be able to zoom in without losing quality.
Excellent post Sir. Well said. And I agree on all points.

Can I have peoples guesses on if they will be announcing the next event date during the September event if there is an October event ?
What to expect? People wondering out loud if we've reached peak iPhone. Apple fanboys trying to make some lemonade out of lemons, while quietly starting to worry about their favorite tech company. Tim & Co making fun out of their predicament with the EU ruling and trying their best to make a meh iPhone update look a lot better than it is. That's what you can expect. In other words, don't expect much and you'll only be slightly disappointed.
