![]() This thread is for the purposes of discussing the Apple Event taking place today at 12pm central time. WARNING: This is not a thread for bashing Apple. All violators will be reported. ![]() ![]() On tap for today: 1) iPhone OS 4.0 (possible announcement of multi-tasking and UI makeover) 2) New Macs (Macbook Pro is said to contain i5/i3 CPU's) 3) New desktop software (iLife '10 & Aperture X) 4) The acquistion of Lala music service (put your iTunes library in the cloud to be accessed and streamed anywhere) 5) iPad (the rumored and highly anticpated and 95% confirmed tablet device) 6) Possible upgrades to the iPhone hardware 7) Possible annoucement of the ending of iPhone AT&T exclusivity and availability to all carriers.

![]() I would like to see an iPhone with at least a 3.7" screen(4.3" like the HD2 would be nicer), sporting at least 800x480 resolution, with a 1ghz snapdragon processor(or equivalent). That would make the iPhone a viable alternative, IMO. Oh yeah, and on Verizon, cause AT&T blows dog balls. |

![]() I'm interested in the new iPhone OS, and whether a newer phone will be announced (and if I can keep myself from upgrading to it). |

![]() QWERTY keyboard is good for more than just typing. Gaming with a QWERTY, even a bad one, is better than multitouch(depending on the game of course) |

![]() I was really bummed to learn that the tablet is using an upgraded iPhone OS and not the full blown OS X. |

They probably wanted something quick to start up/shut down/low power consumption, hence no need for OS X.. but you never know, I'm sure there'll be an OSX version eventually |

![]() Is there a way to look at the footage of Job's announcements during or after the fact? I find it immensely entertaining to watch him preach to the choir, so he always takes chances saying ridiculous things.

![]() ![]() For some reason this looks retarded to me. It just looks like someone photoshopped an iphone to huge proportions and stuck it back in his hands. Almost like something you'd see on The Onion ![]() The only thing that would make it better would be him holding it up to his ear and talking ![]() |
