I’m switching from PC to mac. I’m planning to buy a MacBook Pro on March 30, 2007, just before the Easter holydays, here in Belgium.
So I’m hoping for a spreadsheet program in iWork 07. And off course the immediate release of Leopard. But nobody else seem to think Leopard will be announced… Does anyone know when it’s planned?

I have a funny feeling we might not see a massive amount of announcements. I read a report saying Apple had fallen out with the Macworld organizers and they might favour a ‘One More Thing’ event later in the month to announce an iPhone etc. I might be wrong and hopefully I am but everyone is getting their hopes up so much that they’re bound to be disappointed at the end.

I think that we will see the iPhone and will see a wide screen iPod. But the problem with this keynote is that everyone thinks they know what is to come.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Steve unveil a new 8-core tower, or a cheaper laptop. But I made my predictions here:

If the iPhone is announced I don’t think it will be released straight away. But just like Glenn, I want to stop hearing all the rumours about it.

Let's see if many people see this link, well hidden within my comment ;-)

I too would like to see the iPhone become a reality. New MacBooks would be nice too (especially with rumors of them coming out with Flash memory to store the OS :D)

iPhone unlikely!

I don’t know whether I’d have put it that bluntly, however, I’m with Jay – new iPods would be nice. =P

It would be nice to get an update to the Cinema Displays.

I want a new fucking wide iPod

Perhaps an update to the MacBook Pros. Or cheaper. Either is cool.

I would like to have a Macbook Pro 12″. That would be marvelous!

I have also posted something about the Keynote next week on my blog.

Octo Mac Pro.

Glenn, I’m very skeptical about the phone. I might be wrong, but I can’t imagine how Apple would try entering that market. But Apple always surprises us.

I blogged my thoughts on this here:

Glenn, I’m with you on the iPhone comment. It would be great to have one but I’m just tired of seeing rumors and Photoshop pics everywhere. I hope they took some notes of what iWeb is lacking when they looked at other applications like RapidWeaver.

I’m with DeathAxe. Since the Mac Mini will most likely be the first mac I purchase this year, I hope that it will be more powerful at the same or lower price.

Well, we all know that a new iLife and iWork are coming out, thanks to Amazon.com. I believe there’s single and multi-pack versions.

Anyway, I would like a nice update to iPhoto as it’s the only part of iLife that I actually use.

I would like to see a slight processor upgrade in the iMacs, but that’s not going to happen. I just want it so that it would really push me into buying that rather than the Mac Pro (I’m still leaning towards iMac, purely because I’ll probably end up buying another iMac or better in a year or two anyway).

I do want the iPhone. Chances of it being out in the UK in January? Incredibly low.
