Okay, as WWDC06 aproaches, more and more rumours around Apple World are poping up every where. Let's give a look to a couple of them:

• Via Engadget: Apple's Leopard OS features leaked?
  "Spotlight 2.0, Dashboard 2.0, Safari 3.0, iChat 4.0, Automator 2.0, QuickTime 7.2, Mail 3.0, iCal 3.0, Address Book 5.0. As one might imagine, these are all incremental improvements to currently existing software; apparently we can expect interface improvements for Spotlight and Dashboard, as well as the inclusion of desktop widgets".
  
  
• Via Engadget too:
  Resume: no iPhone (yet), Blu-ray probably coming in January (at Macworld 2007), Mac Pros will ship October or November, new monitors with "built-in iChat" (huh?), no plans for an Apple TV, nor a 12 or 14-inch MacBook, iTunes movie downloads will feature burning to DVD, no Mac tablet on the horizon, and, of course the bit everyone wants to know, "expect a true video iPod with Airport support" in the future.
  
  
• Via Gizmodo:
  Bloomberg TV is saying the New York Post is claiming Microsoft is pushing their video on the Zune off launch, and only challenging Apple on the audio front this year.
  
  
• Via Gizmodo too:
  Apple's upcoming iPod will make its debut this November and will definitely feature a touchscreen, Gizmodo has learned.
  
  
• Via Digg:
  Photos from Apple WWDC 2006. Take a look inside Apple's convention.
  

My opinion:
First of all, no one can really tell what the heck is Apple planning for their convention. Gizmodo says that no video iPod is coming, and a supposedly insider is claiming November as the launch date.
Plus: Nice photos of WWDC 2006. check out on that Flickr accnt. Niiiiiceee!!
Plus 2: Leopard features? I hope that's only a brief look at it!! We hope more from Apple!!
Plus 3: Well Micro$oft... if you really think you have an iPod killer on proccess, and it doesn't have video (my plus: voice recording, Wireless, multi-format support, voice recognition, radio)... THINK TWICE!!
---------
Mi opinión:
Antes que nada, nadie sabe que demonios está planeando Apple para la proxima WWDC. Gizmodo mismo dice que no hay planes para un widescreen video iPod, y a la vez postea una noticia donde un "informante interno" dice que Noviembre es la fecha de lanzamiento.
Plus: Excelentes fotos de la WWDC 2006, chequeen esa cuenta de Flickr que tiene mas!!
Plus 2: Funcionalidades del Leopard? Espero que sea solo algo breve!! Siempre esperamos más de Apple!!
Plus 3: Bueno Micro$oft... si verdadera mente piensas que tienes un asesino del iPod en proceso, y el mismo no posee video (mi agregado: grabacion de voz, conex wireless, soporte para multiples formatos, reconocimiento de voz, radio)... PIENSALO DOS VECES!!

Interesting analysis over Duggtrends about Digg stats after Calcanis offer, and 12 top digg users acceptance to that offer...

"Looks like many have realized the value of being a top user and probably are aiming for Netscape money.
You can see the difference; many non-regular users started submitting a whole lot of stories. The users marked in red are new users (who has not submitted any story before). It is weird to note that infonote user has submitted a total of 428 stories but still has none of his submitted stories is promoted to frontpage"

Now, what would you do if they pay you to make something you are doing for free....?

Interesante analisis realizado por Duggtrends acerca de las estadisticas de Digg despues de que Calcanis hiciera la oferta de pagar 1000 dolares por mes a lso top users de Digg, y despues de que 12 de ellos aceptaran...

Que harías si te ofrecieran 1000 dolares mensuales, por algo que hacías gratis....?
