Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard) in Spring 2007 and iLife Soon?
Apple just completed the conference call for their financial results from Q1 2007. As reported Apple posted $1 Billion in profit. A few interesting comments were made during the question and answer section that followed.
First of all, despite concerns about Apple's silence about Leopard may mean that they are behind on it, Apple execs confirmed that they are still planning on shipping Leopard in "Spring 2007":
Second, and perhaps more revealing is that when questioned about when iLife would be updated, they implied it would be very soon:

I think iLife and iWork will be update at the same time Leopard comes in.
I heard some rumors that they are connect in some way. So the new versions will work under Leopard.

If the Beatles rumors are true about Feb 4th I can see iLife 07' somehow intertwined in that media blitz.
So I'm guessing iLife 07" in February.With Leopard getting out in March.

It would be nice if iLife was bundled into Leopard as part of its included set of apps. I'd even pay a higher price for OS X, like $150 to $160. I wonder if this will be necessary someday as Microsoft continues to include these kinds of apps in Vista to compete.

I wonder if the supposed Spring timing for the Leopard launch is actually a smokescreen. Vista's consumer launch this month seems too good a PR opportunity to miss! :D
