Tonight, the technology giant will be having a second crack at live streaming an event. WWDC was a piss poor effort with buffering ‘o plenty, and Chinese audio. Just goes to show, that Apple really do struggle with software 8)

….hardware, however, they are quite good at.

More shininess is going to be plopped out of Cupertino later on today with the following to be expected:

New iMacs…retina displays?
iPad Airs ….now 50% helium.
…possibly, maybe, doubtful Retina MBAs.

Also, a load of other stuff like Yosemite being released, and maybe the Mac Mini/AppleTV getting a spit and polish

Live stream will be here: http://www.apple.com/live/ from 18:00.

My bet is on Apple TV being the star of the show with an incremental spec bump with iPad Air and iPad mini. Everything else is a chin stroking maybe.

An iphone 6 Mini 🙂 (otherwise I’ll be hoping my iP4 can last until the ip7 comes out)

Big graphs with no scale
Hand waving
lots of black?
lots of new fixes features 🙂

lots of fanbois getting all worked up

When I was typing this thread, I added the tag: “mikewsmith in 5…4…3..2..”, but took it out, as thought it was mean.

I guess if i have a flaw, it’s always wanting to see the best in people.

lol it’s perfect time down here in Oz Jamie

lots of fanbois getting all worked up

I’m bollock naked, lubed up and ready to go….and there’s still 4hrs to go!

This stuff allegedly

Meh

I was really hoping for a retina Macbook Air. Love my 2012 MBA, but the screen is a weak point compared to some of the offerings from Samsung/Asus/Lenovo.

Congrats you win a Lollipop.

When I first saw that image in the OP I thought it looked like a paintbrush about to paint a bum.

I don’t know what else to add – it’s not going to be anything too exciting is it? Just iPad and Macbook upgrades?

I’m sure I saw some was accidentally revelaed already- iPad mini 2, Macbook Air2 and so on>

edit – as NorthernMatt said above

Im waiting for an iPad with an A8 – im feed up with my Surface RT (one of the first ones) being pretty bollox

A new iPad Mini 3 and Air 2 according to HuffPo.

i’m hoping for a new Mac Mini so the price of 2nd hand ones on ebay will drop. Nothing if not ambitious, me.

News update:

+++ VULTURE CENTRAL 13:10 GMT +++ We’re chasing up unconfirmed rumours that the new iPad will have a biometric tongue sensor rather than the previous fingerprint unit. Users would lick their fondleslabs to unlock them, rather than fingering their button.

“It makes sense,” comments one Vulture analyst. “A lot of keen Apple users are probably well accustomed to licking glass surfaces.”

😉

heh. Actually surprisingly witty for the Register (which normally appears to be written by my 13 year old nephew)

May be tempted by a improved MacBook Air but otherwise still upset with them for breaking my phones.

Heh.

Nobody does bullshit, like Apple does bullshit.

Just for Mike…

Anyone risking a Yosemite upgrade? Quite tempted.

More photoshop moment for you Jamie.

Pixelnator looks good!

I would try it on an external drive/partition before committing to it.

Also, remember it’s always a bugfest on any new update.

Pixelnator looks good!

I use it as well as PS, on the Mac, and it’s very good. Only £20 as well.

That’s a flashy retina 27″ iMac.

Oooh! I’m ordering an iMac next month. Glad I waited.

As when retina came out on the Macbooks, every app will look like shit for about several months.

Hahaha yeah there will be that.

Someone let Pornhub know there is a new video standard!

$2499

/Cancels Order.

Only shipping with a fusion drive as standard?

Well…I guess it’s better than the embarrassment of the 5400rpm drives.

$2499

So about £1700-ish? Edu discount could get that down. Plus get 3 yr Apple care.
