Glad to see this, but I was underwhelmed by the Keynote.
I was hoping for an early release of the SDK.

Happy to see the software upgrades, but sorry that there were no hardware upgrades to go with it. My money was on a bump in memory and a second iPhone design. Looks like my bank account is safe for a few months.
