WWDC to Be Held June 13 to June 17 in San Francisco

4999 please.

A fully specked out MBP with warranty isn't far off actually. Especially if they have a 2TB SSD option.

 

[volcomvenom]

I have saved up a bunch of money so far just for the new rMBP's 2016 version!!!

4999 for a base product. 7999 for full spec, please.

What is there really for developers to get excited about? The Mac and iOS platform are pretty mature now. There isn't a whole lot new. The Watch SDK has been out long enough to know that we're never going to see anything truly groundbreaking on it. Apple TV apps aren't different enough from what we've seen on iOS forever to be interesting.

What most of us have been talking about, a Siri API. I know a lot of developers that would get excited about that.

 

[iDuel]

Give me a new MBP with a tapered design with 12 hour battery life, and charge whatever you like on my credit card.

Hope they don't call your bluff

 

[Andres Cantu]

Siri for Mac confirmed, although it was pretty much a given.

 

[McTool]

You read it here first - this indicates Siri is coming to the Mac.

No, we didn't. A rumor circulating for some time now and very obvious Siri was coming to the Mac.
Even in the '80's. There was a commercial about it.

 

[CFreymarc]

If we're being pedantic about the Mac naming scheme, the chances are it'll be called "MacOS", firstly on this page; http://www.apple.com/environment/answers/ it references it and there have been job listings relating to "MacOS" too.

Supposedly bets in the Loop for the next OS X release names are: Shasta, Whitney, Big Sur and Monterrey.

 

[jonnysods]

If they talk about OS X and iOS, surely they will delve into the WatchOS and some hardware too. All the OS's get their betas on the same day now, the unison is there.

And for sure they will say something about the Mac, they've done it lots in the past.

 

[MrGuder]

Hey Sri when will the iPhone SE be back in stock?

Siri: give it about 2-4 weeks, it's been a huge seller!!!

 

[yanki01]

oh, another one of those "we can't wait to see what you do with it" conference? also, que the "wooo" guy in the audience which we'll hear after every dramatic sentence.

 

[Slix]

Apple's events make me excited regardless of what they announce, so I'm excited!

Siri giving out the event dates is a nice touch.

 

[applepuree]

So long as the live stream is not in Chinese

 

[Mattsasa]

Hoping that everyone (even the Mac Mini) is shown some Skylake luv during WWDC.

Here's hoping

You read it here first - this indicates Siri is coming to the Mac.

probably

Excited to see whats coming in MacOS 12 and iOS X

I am curious what number they will give it...

MacOS 10.12, or like you said MacOS 12, or MacOS 11.0, or MacOS 1.0?

 

[navaira]

"9to5Mac points out the reveal is no accident. Earlier in the day, Siri was informing users “WWDC is not yet announced.”"

It's fascinating to find out there are people who spend all day asking Siri "When is WWDC?" and documenting their endeavours. At least I have the excuse of being sick at home when someone asks "why have you spent the last few hours refreshing Watched Threads".

 

[boast]

Get ready for a 6 hour show covering new iMacs, Mac Minis, Mac Pros, MacBooks, MacBook Pros, MacBook Airs, Thunderbolt Display, iPad Air 3, iPad Mini 5, thinner Apple Watch, new Apple Airport Extreme!!!!

That would be exciting, but it sure would be a surprise. I haven't heard any rumors or anything about that. It's long, long overdue.

New Mac's are likely unless Apple holds a big event in September where they announced a load of new things, similar to last year when they announced the iPhone 6s and iPad Pro. Or maybe an October event like they use too where the announce new Mac's.

Ah. Apologies. No idea when they changed that.

 

[Mattsasa]

umm, maybe they changed it because they have not publicly announced they are changing the name...?

 

[_mdavenport]

If Siri knows that, then...

"Hey Siri, when will the rMBP's be updated?"

"Hey Siri, when will the new 12" Retina MacBook be released?"

"Hey Siri, when will force touch be added to Magic Mouse?"

etc. etc. etc.

 

[EthanLMT]

That made me laugh...thanks Siri

THE ROBOTS HAVE BECOME SENTIENT RUN FOR YOUR LIVES

This is actually on the low side for a conference of this size.

It should be FREE for a company of Apples Size.
