Since everybody and his dog is making predictions or outing rumors about the Keynote that Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs will give today, I thought it would be fun to participate.
So without further ado, here are my predicitons for today’s Apple Keynote at WWDC 08 San Francisco:
- Opening Song: my prediction: “Viva La Vida” by Coldplay. (why? Coldplay is the hottest seller on the iTunes music store)
- New Application Store for iPhone and iPod Touch applications (no surprise, I guess)
- New 2.0 firmware for iPhone and iPod Touch (no surprise either)
- New iPhone Nano 3G, in black and red, launched all over the world, subsidized and starting at 2GN memory up to 32 GB
- New name for DotMac… Me.Com with a basic free service and additional services at a price.
- New names for MacOS, OS X Leopard and OS X
- OS X Leopard is now also available on select PC machines, leaving the Apple only doctrine (personal note: I would find this not cool, could be dangerous for Apple)
- New OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, with focus on Multi Touch capability, would make sense why Microsoft was in such a hurry to present quick quick a video of Windows 7, but only showing some Multi Touch capability. So they can say… we were first… yeah right
- New MacBook Pro, with new processor, launches in August or so
- One More Thing: Presentation of a multitouch notepad kinda computer, to show off the capabilities of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Ok, thus my predictions. Some will be obvious, some might not be. Let’s see what comes true 
Cheers
