WWDC 2008 Keynote Coverage Live

[iphonesarecool]

i wonder if we can buy it tonight??? or tomorrow as the stores are down?

Apparently Apple has decided desktop/laptop computers are no longer worth developing for......

You don't think that what they learn from iPhone, multitouch, and app. development can be used on the desktops and laptops?

What they're finding out about touch screens and touch devices can certainly be carried over to future versions of Mac OS X and other computers.

If it's only 2.5x faster than EDGE, it seems unlikely to be HSDPA.

Apparently Apple has decided desktop/laptop computers are no longer worth developing for......

It does seem a bit sad.. the next iteration of Apple's operating system 10.6 isn't even worth discussing at a WWDC any more.

 

[billchase2]

cool, GPS. not very surprised about it though. we all knew it was coming.

 

[gadgetgirl85]

Prices and availability please!

maybe it's in the beginning..

 

[Agathon]

Man, everything is coming true. I'd hate to be another mobile phone manufacturer right now.

Every other phone officially sucks now, and anyone who says different is clearly a Microsoft loving troll.

 

[rhett7660]

But to finally hear it from the horses mouth....

 

[ghall]

Well my iPhone now seems somewhat...obsolete...and fat.

 

[billchase2]

you'll probably be able to order today... but i doubt it'll ship for another couple weeks.

 

[Anuba]

So why is the store down now?

Fair point, but why won't the iPhone 2.0 software be available until July if the iPhone 3G would be available starting today?

Easy... they're taking pre-orders.

 

[buccsmf1]

Whats The Freaking Date????

 

[Muzzway]

I can imagine the Lombard demonstration...

 

[tmelvin]

So does it have GPS?

Will Safari be snappier?

 

[extraextra]

Prices and availability please!

Agreeeeed.

So the very first leaked pictures of the black one was real... very nice.

i saw this coming at last years macworld. the fact that they threw leopard on the backburner for a phone says it all.

 

[BrianFD3S]

Hmm.. black plastic, same capacity, no front camera.

None of these bother me, but they do point in one pretty sweet direction


--> Cheap.

 

[poorbusker]

I'm just waiting for "499$, available in November"

 

[mrgreen4242]

They said they were demo-ing it after lunch/later today.

 

[gadgetgirl85]

I'm just waiting for my funds from paypal to clear then I will have money to buy this baby (Well, depending on the price!)

 

[Watabou]

Apple stock is still down 6.30

Ahaha, a person just yelled "YAHHH!"

 

[Karvel]

Nursery rhyme?!

 

[billchase2]

I'm just waiting for "499$, available in November"
