[Official] Apple WWDC 2011 Keynote

It's not about the numbers but about the growth :/ :pinch:

growth is still miniscule compared to the industry as a whole... oh so they are a higher % then the industry growth %... how much more can the industry grow? they are basically saturated as it is

[Rudy]

Will itunes let me download ios 5 for my iphone as soon as they make the announcement? How does this usually work?

http://live.twit.tv/ has a live stream from someone's phone lol

Probably not, it will most likely have some kind of beta version available for developers only at first

[neufuse Veteran]

i duno how much i like the no scrollbars visible thing, there should be some kinda indicator that there is scrolling available... to have it only so you know if you try to scroll is a little odd

The industry has been pretty stagnant (even had a negative growth for a while) while Apple has been positive the whole time :/ But who cares really?

Apple seems to be catering to the nintendo crowd with the photobooth facial detection stuff... remindes me of the Nintendo DS.....

54 million mac users...... compared to around a billion windows users.... apple plays the hype up to make anything seem good... but hey they are growing

remember....mac has basically 5 models and that is it. How many different hardware configs are there on the pc?

if Apple wants to get really big, they need to open up their hardware more... locked down everything all the way to what graphics cards you can use due to custom firmwares is dumb... make an industry standard and stick to it, and its not just UEFI, its UEFI + Apple hacks to make it work for OSX in a certain way

Well, im liking the features of Lion so far, bought my first mac this week so looking forward to trying it out.

I do find it ironic though at least coming from Windows, all this talk of full screen apps.

When I switched to Mac everyone always told me to stop thinking full screen, windows forces you to always work fullscreen and that you won't need it in mac

well here we are...full screen apps with OSX

[Jase]

Gizmodo now has a live video coverage!

No, trust me, they are catering to everyone. That is by FAR the most loved app on my iPad by all my friends. Hours of endless entertainment. Everyone loves it.

[Rudy]

I really wish launchpad could be set has the "desktop" instead of a separate layer :/

[rajputwarrior]

i like resume, auto save is nice and how your work environment is perfectly saved in every app even after restart. also all the touchpad gestures are nice

also versions look nice. lion looks great :)

[Rudy]

Is this a new textedit or is it another app?

[Leonick]

Wow, looks like Apple has been doing a great job coming up with bland and ugly icons for everything, icloud, launchpad, mission control, auto save, resume, multi-touch gestures all using the same bland and ugly style :/

[rajputwarrior]

thats pages i think ontario

[Elliott]

Is this a new textedit or is it another app?

That's Pages.

[Rudy]

thats pages i think ontario

Thanks, I wasn't sure. Never used Pages :/

[rajputwarrior]

i don't really care for the app store that much

[rajputwarrior]

i don't really care for the app store that much

i don't mind it, it's convenient.

[NeoXY]

Woah. Airdrop looks very very useful. Peer to peer wifi, no set up. Outgoing and Incoming, fully encrypted connection. Nice.

[Elliott]

With delta updates, in app purchases, and push notifications tied into the MAS in Lion, what's not to love? :p

[Squirrelaw]

All amazing stuff so far. I'm blown away.

[NeoXY]

Kinda disappointed that they didn't demo any thing that we didn't already know from Lion. Was hoping for more new NEW features. But guess not.
