WWDC Banner Confirms iOS 6 Announcement

Sure would be nice if Apple entered the 21st Century and live-streamed it. You know, like every major company just did at E3, to millions of people online and to Spike TV.

If they can afford to do it, so can Apple, NO excuse.

Sure Apple could do it, but they won't. Guarantee it.

My bets are still on a sept/oct release!

I'd bet August/September. Last years model was delayed. It's usually 2-3 months. I need a new phone now though, I'd love to see it come even earlier.

At this point, a file system would make it less advanced. Let's get to the file system-less future!

How do you figure? Currently, if I made a song on my iPad, I have remember which app I made the song in; so, I have go open up Garageband and see if it's there. Then, if it's not, I have go into FL Studio to see if I made it in there. A simpler solution would what I do on my Mac - I have a folder named "Song Demos" that store all my music demos from different apps (which I can have an overview of all my demos in my glance).

Also, if you're working on a project that involves mixed files (a Word Doc, a Photoshop file etc...), you can't group them in iOS & are forced to jump into applications just to view where your files are.

I guess it's not a big deal for people who just use iOS devices to consume media, but if you're creating, it's a drawback.

Mac Rumors is going to implode come Monday.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Earth came screeching to a halt... lol

Add in Blizzcon. They live stream too, to the digital ticket holders.
 
C'mon guys! Like everything else Apple prior to the iPhone 2, hardware is not numbered, OS is numbered. They're just going back to that standard.

I do lots of creation in ios and I like the separation o files by app. I know where everything is. Want a pages documents? Open pages. Want a PDF? Open iBooks. Want a music file? Open GarageBand. It hides the "complex" part of computing.

But what if you want (for example) another app to open up a pdf? Apple will not solve for all of this you know.

:eek: that's like saying windows xp is still pretty in 2012

LOL. True. To be fair, I'd like to see those feature, perhaps what is more accurate is that for me I really want 3rd party apps (and first party apps) to communicate with each other.

Imho, this would advance the OS the most.

Honestly, that's not an advanced feature. It's a dated one. Manually organizing files is the opposite of advanced. That's not saying that there aren't times where it can be useful, though, there are times. Things like libraries are more advanced features though.

Really there should be one place where files of a certain type are stored.

Basic example. There should not have to be separate storage areas for video files for each video player you install.

Video files (like other files) should be stored in one location that all programs can access. It's daft otherwise

either the "new iPhone" does not change much or the iOS6 will give something away in advance and they might as well just announce the phone. like if the screen size changes, wouldnt they have to announce that in advance other wise the iOS6 beta will be pointless

e. g.

hey devs we gave you the iOS6 beta a few months ago to adjust your apps but LOL what we didnt tell you is that the screen size is gonna be different, so you have to do it all over again

Apple did this with iOS 4. Developers spent months working on new apps and then on the day of WWDC Apple was like "oh, by the way, now double the resolution and you have 2 weeks before the iPhone 4 goes on sale, enjoy"

(not a direct quote)

If Apple does stretch out the screen, they can probably do something like what they did with the first iPad, have black bars on both sides (letter box) until the developer updates the app to take advantage of the extra real estate.
