WWDC Keynote Summary – iPhone 3G : Expected

This morning's WWDC Keynote by Steve was nice, but everything there was leaked with such high reliability that there was nothing - literally nothing that wasn't on the rumor site's round-up of rumors for the keynote. Steve even passed on saying anything about Snow Leopard in the keynote, referring to another speaker after the lunch break. Not too surprising, because it's not going to have wild new features, but still... unusual for Steve to have nothing up his sleeve.

iPhone 3G was expected... Mobile Me was expected... iPhone 2.0 apps was expected... that's about all he talked about. I was a little disappointed that they spent a good 45 mins talking and demoing apps for the iPhone. Leave that for the show floor, guys. Spend 10 mins on that and then the other 35 on Snow Leopard, or something else. I understand why - he wants to generate a lot of buzz and therefore a lot of sales, and this is a good way to do it.

So it was something I glad I kept an eye on, but nothing I saw or heard is making my buy anything in the near future.
