Last Minute Rumors and Notes

- AppleInsider posted a new cryptic article today, but it should not be overanalyzed:


    Sorry guys. The article was written quickly today. I don't have much time these days. I think people are trying to read between the lines when there is nothing there, or maybe the articles aren't clear enough. But I by no means meant to imply that the intel bit, or even the xserve bit, had any relevance to the WWDC.

- Several users have submitted regarding MacMice's reference to the PPC970 PowerBook - MacMice and MacWhispers are run by the same person, so this simply represents a rehash of those rumors rather than any new information.

- Historically, certain retailers have posted teasers prior to events without any specific knowledge of upcoming releases. Cancom's teaser (Page 2) is felt to represent this phenomenon. Please see that thread for details.

-ThinkSecret has noted some minor software updates coming in the future (iDVD, iPod Software, and AirPort software.)

- iTunes for Windows Alpha reports have floated around. No clear indications that this is a real leak, as there is only minimal functionality.

- If any readers have direct access to the satellite feed, please contact us.

- Multiple reports have indicated the PowerMac Photo is not real, but there is an curious new Page 2 report.
