Steve Jobs to speak at WWDC 2008, no way he'll talk about new iPhones

On June 9th, Steve Jobs will be speaking at WWDC. Plans are vague right now, but we understand he will give two lectures on Sudoku, a shirt-folding seminar, and will discuss the possibilities of using a perpetual motion machine to replace the engine in his 1986 Volvo. Afterwards, every developer gets a hug and a low five. It's unlikely he'll discuss the 3G iPhone.

And one more thing..... (pulling a device out of a standard business letter envelope) Introducing the iTablet. The greatest tablet computer that has ever been made. So thin it can slice sushi and still do computing all at the same time with a battery life of 12 hours of video. Running OSX three times faster than the BlackBerry Bold's measly processor can muster. HD ready and plays games better than five PSPs could handle. Voice input, handwriting recognition, WiFi, WIMAX and GPS. Look out people, the frackin' iTablet is set for world domination. Apple's stock price reaches $250/share. And the dream is complete until the next fantastic Apple product is introduced.

Key Points to Include:

Unlocked 3G iPhone sold at Apple retail stores for hefty price. Subsidized 3G iPhone prices at At&t core stores with 2 year agreement (of course), introduction of iPhone at authorized dealer locations. New Mac Mini to have "Macbook Air" slim form feature with new iPod dock built in..... We can all dream can't we?

I am tired of the horrible lies posted on Engadget. Steve Jobs does not believe in shirts, it will be a turtleneck folding seminar.

"More ways than one"?"Landmark"? would that be a thing that doubles up as another? Desktop/UPLC?

[motoko Posted May 13th 2008 11:42AM]

Landmark occasion, in more ways than one, makes me think GPS...

It won't happen, but how about an iLife update? iMovie 08 needs some of the functionality of 06 added back in such as slow motion and better audio control (switching between the two is not fun).

[Joe Stoner Posted May 13th 2008 12:30PM]

Who's to say it won't happen? We could get an iLife upgrade, it's been nearly a year.

I expect two iphone models by years end:
Standard iphone and Iphone photo, to compete in the megapixel race.
It's gonna happen sooner or later, but steve may wait for the standard fall apple music event. It could also explain the TWO bridges.

"Every developer gets a hug and a low five."

We need to get Lost fans in here to investigate the clues in the poster...what do the 2 brides mean? 2 new products? 2 ways to do a similar thing? 2 new iphones?

[magallanes Posted May 13th 2008 1:51PM]

Damn, another "irack" exposition.

check this out, i put this event in my iphones calender, I selected June 9th as the date, typed "WWDC" as title, "San Francisco, Moscone West Center" as location, and it automatically set the time as 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm, which is the correct time for my time zone, does anyone else find this awesome or what?

[(Unverified) Posted May 13th 2008 7:13PM]

that is pretty awesome...I haven't seen a coincidence in a few days now!!

[ryansinger Posted May 13th 2008 1:54PM]

Do we know that Steve drives a Volvo? what else do you know about Steve Jobs??

Can we get a list?

favorites:

shoes
black shirt brand

etc..

one more thing......

[(Unverified) Posted May 13th 2008 5:19PM]

WTF is Apple? iPhone? Steve Jobs? Seriously, that guy should change his name to Steve Unemployment soon.

[(Unverified) Posted May 13th 2008 5:28PM]

They should just start calling it the WWJDC - you know, as in What Will Jobs Do Convention.

[(Unverified) Posted May 13th 2008 5:31PM]

Ok, having just searched Engadget, I see this was not the first time Jobs has been put into the acronym otherwise reserved for our lord and savior. My apologies on my unoriginality. I shoulda known better.

why r there 2 golden gate bridges?

Hi I'm a Mac.
And I'm a PC

Gee PC, I'm really sorry about all those commercials I made

http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/

about how Vista doesn't work with anything and Mac just works and how great Leopard is. I guess it turns out that no one really uses Mac for anything but creative stuff so the voices yelling about how PROTOOLS LE DOESN'T WORK WITH LEOPARD weren't loud enough for us to hear.

I guess I'll just ignore the zillions of postings on the forums about how to DOWNGRADE FROM LEOPARD to Tiger

http://www.gearslutz.com/board/music-computers/156589-new-mac-pro-but-tiger-installed.html

and keep making these commercials anyway until someone posts a SAD SONG about Leopard.
