Today is the day of the keynote for WWDC 2008! It's an exciting day for Mac fans, as we get to see what Steve Jobs is going to offer up to us to enhance our Apple experience. We are pretty sure we are getting a new iPhone today, but how about a new sneak peek at some iPhone apps. Perhaps a preview of some features in an upcoming version of Mac OS X?

Plus... you'll probably see lots of tweets on Twitter.

My Predictions

- 16 GB version @ $299; 32GB version @ $399.

- Rear has an anodized aluminum, like the Nanos, and available in a few colors.

- Some sort of subsidy, which will be maybe $100-$150 off carrier dependent.

- No iPhone on sale until the middle of June.

- New syncing service.. with a monthly fee of course.

By now I think it's very clear that a new version of the iPhone will be debuting very soon. All of the signs point to it.

- iPhone is out of stock in several countries.
- Screenshots of the SDK show an option to disable 3G data.
- WWDC is coming in June, and it's a prefect spot to debut it.
- iPhone firmware 2.0 is coming in June along with 3rd part apps.
- AT&T and other partners have as much as admitted it.

While this new version will probably be full of new features, people will always want more. This next iPhone is going to be what everyone wanted it to be last year. Will this satisfy most people? Nope. No matter how awesome this phone is, and how many features it has... it's always going to be missing one -- a physical keyboard. For me, it's a tradeoff I am willing to make. READ MORE »

I finally had the time to make an appearance on the Mac Roundtable this past week. Be sure to listen in to me, Adam from the MacCast, Katie from The MacCore, and my buddy Victor from The Typical Mac User.

We discuss the new Mac Clone, 10 Apple Flops, New Mac User help, and more!

I am not a big Wal-Mart fan, but I was in there today and found a deal I couldn't walk by. They had iPod Shuffles for $48.75 with a free $15 iTunes Gift card. For just a little over $50 bucks I walked out with an iPod shuffle and an iTunes $15 card. Sweet deal.

The sign on the case said this promotion ends March 23. Get em while they're still available.

Check out the full presentation from Cupertino. If you aren't into the hard core coding stuff, skip to about half way into the show and watch the demos of Epocrates, Super Monkey Ball, Spore, AOL IM, etc.

Man that Super Monkey Ball game looks cool....

Couldn't make it to Macworld Expo to see all of the conferences? Maybe you are like me and went to Macworld Expo, but didn't sign up for any of them. Good news! Macworld has put them all online at the Macworld Encore website for FREE. If you would've attended these separately, it would've cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

Some highlights:
