Apple's annual World Wide Developer's Conference began this morning. Apple's #2, Phil Schiller, is giving the keynote speech right now. He's already announced new MacBooks although nothing too big to report: slightly faster, better battery, cheaper prices. I'm actually glad they didn't change too much because the MacBook Pro is easily the most satisfying consumer electronics product I have ever owned. It's really close to perfect.

The new OS X (10.6 Snow Leopard) is due soon, so that's going to dominate the conference because that's what software developers care most about. In terms of the keynote probably the only things of interest about Snow Leopard to casual users is what looks like pretty full Exchange support , and a $29 price tag (new versions are usually $129.)

New iPhone. $199 for 16GB. $299 for 32GB. The old iPhone will remain and drop to $99.

New iPhone includes 3MP autofocus camera w/ video recording. Compass. Much better battery life. Along with a bunch of software improvements that everyone will get with the impending release of iPhone OS 3.0.

A few days after me, UNIX turns 40 years old.
