I read this at the MacOSG forum. I wonder if this also applies to other Apple User Groups such as PhilMUG.

ah, macworld... what happy memories i had of this event earlier this year (good grief, will it be a year that soon?). i'm praying that our man adel gabot goes this time--he's overdue for his first macworld!

i'm actually flying home from the US to the philippines on dec. 29, so i can teach jan. 2--sayang talaga, could've gone to macworld all over again!

[markcas]

^^ Sayang naman. Quite the opposite with me actually since I'm flying in late December, just in time for my very first Macworld!

Actually the 15% off thing also applies to the coupon code above. I wanted to get a package where it includes the keynote but I don't have $200 lying around so I settled for FREE instead.

So what are your predictions for the 2007 keynote?

for one, rumor sites think Apple won't be able to surprise us with the Leopard debut, but again, Steve Jobs may actually announce its release during his keynote.

iTV is also something to look forward to.

what else do you think will be in apple's list aside from the 11 or 12-inch macbook pro?

[hubes]

1. Probably the Apple cellphone (I would have called it the iPhone but the iPhone is already a Linksys product).

2. A new video iPod. Something with a bigger screen, much like the concept iPods that have been floating around in the rumor mills.

3. I agree with hannibal. There may be a MacBook Pro nano (as Elbert might have called it).

4. Definitely iTV.

5. Leopard (aka 10.5)

6. Who knows maybe iLife '07?

Although most of the products above have had some kind of publicity in the rumor mills during the past few months it still is hard to pinpoint which among them (if in case they do come out) would be the "one more thing..." announcement. It is quite possible that a completely unheard of product may be released.

[CooLes]

Here's mine:

1. Leopard and iLife 2k7

2. iTV

3. Mac mini based on Intel Core 2 Duo

[jepaz]

For me:

1. iTV
2. MacPhone
3. Super Thin 12" widescreen MBP

As for the Leopard, it will be available on spring '07.

[bluechips]

mine:
1. apple phone
2.ilife 07
3.ipod nano 16 to 20 gig
4.macbook
5.leopard
