Happy New Year — Apple’s Big Plans?

posted in Strategy |

applewelcome2007.jpgI suppose I made a mistake by taking New Year’s Day off. I had a huge spike in traffic from people interested in Macworld 2007 predictions. By now, most of you have probably also learned about the message and graphic adorning Apple’s website, but here it is just in case. Contrasting one year (2007) with 30 is bold, indeed. Apple usually lets rumor and speculation drive the hype machine until they have something to announce (”you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet” types of media event invitations), but this just sets the stage for both its customers and anyone else who follows the company, including stock market analysts. This likely foretells some really interesting announcements. I may revisit my own Macworld 2007 predictions as a result.

      […] But AppleInsider goes on to cite sources who share details, such as that Apple was planning to make iTV available at Macworld, but that quality problems will prevent them from doing so. According to AppleInsider, the quality problems primarily relate to getting an OS X lite version working sufficiently for release. Apple hasn’t indicated that iTV will include Mac OS X Lite (or whatever it will be called), but these reports suggest that it is indeed coming, and it might be used on the new Apple mobile phone. If true, perhaps this is part of what Apple meant when it said the first 30 years were just the beginning. […]
