Tell me what announcement will require 2h hours of Steve the Wizzard

Tell me what announcement will require 2h hours of Steve the Wizzard.

It's not hardware (if rumours are ok),

It's not some small app (iXXX),

It's not a revision of OS-X (10.2.3 just appears),

So what ?

20 years of MacOS (Lisa was launched in 1983) ?

MS buying Apple ?

Woz replacing Jobs ?

A while ago there was talk of Apple adopting a new chipmaker (AMD?) because of the disapointingly slow development of the next PPC chip. Could MWSF be the forum for announcing such a revolutionary change? Thoughts?

where do you get 2 hours? the MWSF program lists it as an hour and a half as usual. 9-10:30 am.

I thought I read something about a deal with IBM for future Mac processors? Then again, I'm sure there are rumors for anything I could ever imagine.

Personally, I like the odds for something on the line of a Apple PDA, though it might be a little different - a low cost "information appliance." It would seem to fit with the whole digital hub strategy and all the little iapps and the new Sherlock, bluetooth... Personally I could really use something like this around the house to free me up from my massive desktop G4 when I want to check for a phone number, movie listings, birthday, addresses... If Apple doesn't make it, I wish someone would.

Of course I admit this is 100% speculation on my part so please don't flame me for it.

Thumbs down

At least 30 minutes of it may be spent explaing why they are going to start charging for some iApp updates. I'm sure we'll get the same .mac sob story.
