So with only an hour or so until WWDC starts the rumour mill is grinding at full speed.
I can only hope that two items are released, or at least the release dates are given.
The first is iPhone software 3.0, which will turn my iPod touch into the machine I really want, with cut and paste, plus landscape mode for everything and not just if the developer had thought about it.
With this I will not require to get a netbook because, then the iPod Touch and the iPhone itself will be on par. It would be nice though if Apple themselves could do three apps, or one complete one. iWork for the iPhone would improve things tremendously. If not one app is not a possibility, or if they just want to make money, then the three apps separately would be just as good. With this there will be no need for a "Netbook Mac" It would be all through the iPhone software possible.
The Second item is OS X 10.6 Snow leopard, which for somebody like me who has just a Mac Mini, will come as a blessing, just for Grand Central alone. Grand Central is a built in load balancing program/service which will see a better spread of load across the processors, and also use the GPU. This in theory should improve things dramatically on the lower powered Mac's and turn the top end machines into super top end machines, when one thinks about the amount of cores in the Mac Pro.
So in a couple of hours all will be revealed, though as I watch the podcast Tomorrow of today's Keynote, I know I'll have a big daft grin right across my face.
