• Predictions for today’s Keynote

    Posted on June 8th, 2009 jmstovall No comments

    Big keynote today…just to put it out there, some predictions. In decreasing order of likelihood, I’m thinkin’:

    • New iPhone Hardware: Practically a given. Double capacities, RAM, speed, etc. Availibility is the big question, but I doubt it’s immediate. That sort of thing requires a lot of very quiet inventory movement, a hard feat to pull off.
    • iPhone 3.0: Again, practically a given. Availability, probably this evening. No hardware to move…let’s hope the servers can hold up.
    • iPhone Nano: Possibility, but I have a hard time totally buying it yet. What does a stripped down iPhone look like? What are the differentations in the product line? Does Apple really want to split such a wildly successful product (yet)? And where are the hardware the rumors?
    • Tablet Mac: I want it, oh how I want it, but I doubt it’ll hit. Today, at least. There’s been a lot of talk about this thing for awhile now, including some pretty solid information on 10″ screen contracts, so I think it’s going to happen, but I don’t think it’s today. Within the next year, though, yes.
    • Other things: Probably a bump to the unibody Macbooks, maybe some changes to desktops. Run of the mill stuff, otherwise.

    Next up…scorecard!
