As you may or may not know, Apple has made some sort of announcement -- however minor -- every Tuesday since the beginning of 2008. The internet is currently stacked floor-to-ceiling with guesses of what this last Tuesday in February will bring. Many are speculating that it's going to be the often-discussed, never-seen
MacBook Pro update, while others are certain that this will be the day old Jobsy unveils iPhone's
supposedly-delayed SDK to the world. Still there are those who believe this Tuesday will see the launch of the Apple Robot Army, while many think that we're going to finally get a look at that iShrink shrink ray that's been long-rumored. Of course, it's possible this will be a heaping dose of iNothing. We want to know: what do the talented, handsome, and infinitely-wise readers of Engadget think we'll see tomorrow?

i think it is going to be a robot army consisting solely of WALL-E's
definitely. controlled by a single updated MacbookPro
R0B3RT @ Feb 25th 2008 2:00PM
No i am going to say a large/small shrink ray/iphone though the robot armys not a bad idea.
Deven @ Feb 25th 2008 11:07AM
Funny, is there any other instance of such weekly hype and anticipation like this? Keep hoping guys...
(I'd like a MBP update)
Anthony @ Feb 25th 2008 11:19AM
I'm with you, let's keeps our fingers crossed for a MBP update. At least give us the new cool touch pad that the air got.
AutoTom @ Feb 25th 2008 11:22AM
yeah and i'd like my hernia to go away but we just cant have everything now can we Deven?
ean @ Feb 25th 2008 11:33AM
Maybe we finally get iLink: http://youtube.com/watch?v=jKclWxnz-Do
Secret Squirrel @ Feb 25th 2008 12:52PM
SHRINK RAY FTW!!!
superfresh @ Feb 25th 2008 1:49PM
So now we need a post that precedes the "Apple store is down! Oh boy, what's it gonna be?!" post with sticky note that we're sure to see tomorrow?
I have an idea... let's start predicting what next week's Apple update will be. And the week after that. Let's start predicting when they'll stop making Tuesday updates, and then let's predict when they'll start up again after they stop.
James Mack @ Feb 25th 2008 9:41PM
Windows security updates.
Jeff W @ Feb 25th 2008 11:07AM
Mac Mini update please!
chris @ Feb 25th 2008 11:13AM
i'm the same, i don't have a mac, but am tempted to get a mini, but it's been a while since they updated, and the (integrated) graphics card is quite old, so i'm holding out still
AutoTom @ Feb 25th 2008 11:23AM
oh i'd just love to see them end the mac mini just to spite you!
i'm sure their appleTV sales would triple!
Francis @ Feb 25th 2008 12:02PM
That's very likely because iJustBoughtOne.
JohnPQ @ Feb 25th 2008 2:06PM
Agreed! Apple should show some love to the Mac mini. It's the number #1 selling desktop on Amazon for christ sake. Well at least at the moment. Enough of protecting that god ugly iMac Mr. Jobs.
Jon @ Feb 25th 2008 11:09AM
While I'm going to be watching and waiting for an updated/redesigned MacBook Pro, I think it's more likely to be another dose of iDisappointment...
Kevin Starks @ Feb 25th 2008 11:10AM
I got an iTunes update today i'm now running version 7.6. There's nothing different i can see but that means something is possibly coming
Heathen @ Feb 25th 2008 11:15AM
Or perhaps iSONY,
Or two mouse buttons on a new multi-touch MB-pro (please)
imacmatt09 @ Feb 25th 2008 11:19AM
I like having one button on my macbook. I can press the button anywhere to click. Plus to right click just put two fingers on the pad and click. I find doing this easier and better than having two buttons, but thats just me...
BradVT @ Feb 25th 2008 12:34PM
I agree, right click would be nice. If they're going to have you use two fingers to do it why not get rid of the button all together & use one finger to click.
jollyllama @ Feb 25th 2008 1:16PM
Gawd I get tired of calls for right-click on macbooks. Not only is it NEVER going to happen (since it would be ugly and decidedly un-Apple from a design standpoint), but most people who've used them and know about the two-finger click thing find that superior anyway. Steve, since I know you're reading this comment thread, please, KEEP IT TO ONE GIANT BUTTON. Thanks.
ben @ Feb 25th 2008 4:14PM
Mac will never ship anything with two buttons as default because having to hold down a key with your left hand before you click is _superior_.
Heathen @ Feb 25th 2008 4:27PM
JollyLama: That is stupid..
The touch pad plus click - sucks and is NOT superior. Holding one key down plus clicking sucks too... Style over substance sucks even more!
BigBloke @ Feb 25th 2008 11:12AM
Another Super Tuesday disappointment.
AutoTom @ Feb 25th 2008 11:21AM
isnt this the first 'super tuesday' ever?
it sure feels super
i'm going to stay up for this one... ( tommorow night.. its 3:21AM tuesday here.. )
Homeboy @ Feb 25th 2008 11:45AM
I second that. Further more I'm starting to suspect that Engadget are on an Apple payroll acting like an internet hype-man for Apple. They seem to turn every small Apple rumor into a big news.
phanbouy @ Feb 25th 2008 1:59PM
psst... hey Homeboy. I heard a rumor on the interwebs that you're repeating a whiny meme.
LiqwidZero @ Feb 25th 2008 11:13AM
Maybe we'll get a free wallpaper and screensaver of Steve to download!
:D
Saad Rabia @ Feb 25th 2008 11:52AM
That's $20; Thank you. :)
Oinquer @ Feb 25th 2008 1:52PM
own hehehe
LiqwidZero @ Feb 25th 2008 2:29PM
Well... Fuck!
gieppeto @ Feb 25th 2008 3:07PM
don't worry, they'll release a $25 version... the iWallpaper Plus!!!
tradloff28 @ Feb 25th 2008 11:14AM
I am waiting for the iSupposed mid-March Apple Event for anything worthwhile. Maybe we will see a flurry of new colors for the shuffle, Sea Foam green is one i've been waiting to see on those little guys. :-)

NHAnimator @ Feb 25th 2008 11:14AM
Maybe a webcam that can track you when you move across the room. iBall?
Oinquer @ Feb 25th 2008 11:23AM
that already exists...
ohh im sorry its for Mac...
AutoTom @ Feb 25th 2008 11:20AM
ooh i like this one, creepy
Eugene @ Feb 25th 2008 11:14AM

AutoTom @ Feb 25th 2008 11:20AM
e. bad post above
sdh @ Feb 25th 2008 11:24AM
An albino Domo-Kun is a very rare sight because of their sensitivity to the sun.
Grant @ Feb 25th 2008 11:16AM
iRobot Overlords?!?
i can only hope.
PEZ @ Feb 25th 2008 11:41AM
drop the price of the 8gb ifown.
Jason @ Feb 25th 2008 11:19AM
please, dear god let it be a MBP update
AutoTom @ Feb 25th 2008 11:19AM
God here,
sure thing jason.
steve @ Feb 25th 2008 11:26AM
No Problem
Jason @ Feb 25th 2008 11:29AM
fantastic
HighTeckRedNeck @ Feb 25th 2008 11:18AM
At last, we shall see the iToilet! With cutting edge patented iFlush action and a gorgeous iWipe module. The only downside will be having to ship the iToilet to a licensed Apple store for maintenance every time the iWipe module is soiled.
Sam @ Feb 25th 2008 11:18AM
Pippin 2!!!!
Xzavier @ Feb 25th 2008 11:19AM
"We want to know: what do the talented, handsome, and infinitely-wise readers of Engadget think we'll see tomorrow?"
Tomorrow??? All of this Apply hype just to get some post on this Engadget site is a little bit rediculious. However, if you want to get a slew of post coming out of your wazoo... Simply attach a prize factor to the post, something like... whomever is the first to post the exact product with correct spec. etc. will win a blah, blah, blah. Then I bet you guys will see posts... Thousands of them!
Chris @ Feb 25th 2008 12:16PM
