This year's major iPhone software update isn't all about AI, though, as the following feature list...
This is pretty much what I think is going to happen. Apple TV update that allows third party apps. HBO Go will be one of the featured apps - Kessler already outright said so back in February.
It's too early for the iWatch. Tim Cook talked about it at the AllThingsD and he sounded like he doesn't feel like they've got the right form factor yet. They won't release it until they feel that it will catch fire with teenagers.
Ah, I missed this feeling of Apple excitement in the lead up to a keynote event. I'm actually really excited about Apple TV right now.
