WWDC 2008 Keynote Coverage Live

New Apple iPhone expected tonight (UK time)

The rumours stop at 6pm

Apple is expected to announce the launch of a new iPhone this evening (Monday) following months of speculation online, in newspapers and magazines.

What could be the world’s worst kept secret of the year, Steve Jobs is, if all the rumours are true, about to announce the launch of a 3G version of the handset that the company is hoping will silence critics once and for all.

Last year Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO, has confirmed the company would launch a 3G iPhone in 2008.

Making the comments at the "Mum is no longer the word" press conference at the Regent Street Apple store in London, Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple said: "You can expect a 3G iPhone later next year". At the time Jobs blamed power issues for a lack of 3G option at launch.

Will Steve Jobs announce a 3G version? Will it feature GPS? Will the UK get the handset at the same time as the US? What about the App Store? What about other announcements being made?
 
Apple Cinema Display, anyway.

The 8 cores were welcome but the miserable hard drives, the tight assed amount of memory, having to still pay for wireless?

Well in 20 minutes the threads will start. Will think i'll stay away for a few days.
 
I hope Apple found a way out of exclusivity with ATT

I hate ATT... they could have an iPhone from 10years in the future and I still wouldn't buy it. So, even though the chances are slim to none, I'm hoping to heard iPhones available for all the major US carriers.

Probably almost as unlikely, I'd love to see them release a mini-tablet/PDA to replace the Newton. I love my Touch, but I'd like something a little bigger... but not too much bigger.

Also hoping for a decent selection of iPhone/Touch apps... I'm ready to buy a game or two and would like to see a good NWS radar widget. Kinda surprised that the iPhone isn't running the Dashboard engine so you could download any old widget and use it on the iPhone/Touch.

Finally, I'd be really excited to hear support for Blu-ray!! I just got a beautiful 24" aluminum iMac and HD podcasts look awesome on it.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but ...

What exactly is spoiler free keynote coverage?

"Steve gets on stage. Steve says Apple rocks. Steve thanks Apple employees."

Perhaps an hour and a half long description of the clothes steve's wearing? "As Steve walks to the left side of the stage, we see a single pill on his turtleneck."

AT&T really isn't that bad. I don't know anyone who's 100% in love with a service provider. There are too many variables in the service industry to keep the customer happy all the time, from my experience being a client of AT&T compared to T-Mobile and Sprint, I've enjoyed their service, coverage and useful services.
 
Fianly catched up
