Apple Announces Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2007
WWDC 2007 will take place from June 11-15th, 2007 in San Francisco, CA:
This June, the center of the Mac universe will be in downtown San Francisco, as developers and IT professionals from around the globe come together for the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference. Don't miss this opportunity to connect with Apple engineers, get a firsthand look at the latest technology, and spend a week getting the kind of inspiration you won't find anywhere else.
Earlier rumors had pegged the date of the conference for this time. Last year's WWDC conference was delayed to August to coincide with Intel Mac Pros and the Leopard Preview.
WWDC is Apple's developer conference and focuses on developer topics. However, in recent years, with the demise of the summer Macworld expo, WWDC's keynote address has become a venue for significant Apple announcements.

Apple announced details about this years Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC).
WWDC 2007 will take place from June 11-15th, 2007 in San Francisco, CA:
That means no Leopard until June. There's no other event that would be suitable for demoing Leopard until then (they can't very well show it at a one-off event, because Journalists and industry people, the typical audience for such events, really aren't the right audience for a new Mac OS.)
That's sad, but let's hope they use the time well.
That means no Leopard until June.
I don't think it means that at all. No reason Apple can't launch Leopard at any time in between.

cheers..
So we got a date, when the new macbook pros incl santa rosa will arrive...
cheers..
That's kinda what I'm thinking.... It would be about the right time. As for Leopoard, I think we'll see it at NAB and it will ship end of April along with updated Mac Pro systems and updated Pro applications. Apple can't afford to not have updated, 8-core Mac Pro systems and updated Final Cut Studio / Shake at NAB.
I hope Apple makes some sort of significant Mac-related announcement between now and when the WWDC keynote ends ;)
And also, I don't see why they would use the developers conference to release the iPhone, since there will be no 3rd party development anyway.

God knows it could use a major upgrade, especially iDVD, which I've been fighting with for the last 5 days.
I think Leopard will be released at WWDC just in time to show off the "secret features" that hooks up with iPhone in some kinky, sexy ways we haven't seen yet. That's my expectation, at least.
Given the June announcement, I think Apple will release new Mac Pros sometime in late February or early March, otherwise the line-up would have gone without a refresh for nearly 10 months!
looking forward to it though! very glad it's in June and not August this time:cool: :apple:
