i HOPE for the new iPod touchscreen
i doubt there will be an apple phone coming out on/around April 1st
I really want the new iPods to come out, because i've been waiting since... January or so, and I'm somewhat tempted to buy a 5g right now, but I keep telling myself that it will be worth the wait
# 2 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
I bought a 5th gen but plan on selling it and paying the difference on a touchscreen one...I've read reports that major wireless providers (cingular/verizon) don't want to back the moto/apple phone so they are on a major hold. basically because Apple wants to alow people to put songs off their computer right onto the phone for free and verizon/cing are thinking they will lose too much money on ringtone sales and stuff so thats soooo ### apple might go with t-mobile a smaller provider or just with noeone and sell it in normal stores like bestbuy/applestores etc and online but nothings final and SUPPOSEDLY it will have a 400-500 price tag thats insane...id deff throw down 200-300 MAYBE on it but 500...i could buy a nice phone like the RAZR or Sidekick and a iPod for that...insane
so no one knows what april 1st will include...rumors anythign?
# 3 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
well of course no one knows, if some1 new besides steve Jobbs that would ruin his surprise wouldnt it.
# 4 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
yeah but everything is always leaked somehow and im sure the guys on here wit like 4000+ post must have a decent idea haha rumors/etc :( sorry im just wicked excited i WISH it was the phone ugh...i hate my phone and want to buy a Sidekick or SLVR but am waiting in hopes of the phone I know it isn't though and i wanted to know if anyone had any rumor/ideas...
# 5 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
i doubt there is even a touchscreen ipod coming mabey in a couple years but not anytime soon in my opinon, because of the photoshop video.

They could have a CDMA and a GSM version and have the GSM on smaller GSM carriers and have the CDMA on alltel so I can have a new awesome phone that is dual use :D
# 7 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
I'm definitely thinking that there is going to be an Intel iBook replacement and the discontinuation of the Power PC Macs. (With the exception of the G5, because that is a sexy piece of machinery.)
I hope that they'll be putting out an update to Rosetta that will get closer to Power PC speeds, and the new iPod couldn't hurt.
But to get specific about this new iBook, I've spent my time thinking of what the specs might look like, so here, without any further ado, is:
Freddy Ramone's Dream Intel iBook!
1.5 GHz Intel Core Duo (Up to 1.83 GHz Upgrade)
512 MB RAM (Up to 2GB Upgrade)
16x SuperDrive (CD/DVD+/-RW)
60GB HDD (Up to 100GB Upgrade)
14.1" TFT Widescreen
Gigabit Ethernet
Airport Extreme
Front Row, iLife, Blah Blah Software...
So Yah! Cool, I hope that's how it works out. Then I will have an awesome iBook to look foreward to buying in, oh, 15 months... :(
Or they may just put an iMac in a wooden case and call it the 30th Anniversary Mac.

Can't afford a new Mac at the moment (nor do I need one since I got my iMac 2 months ago) but I hope to see the start of a 13.3" MacBook Pro so that I can get one next year.
Touchscreen iPod would be nice though unlikely...
Freddy, there's no way your iBook could come out on April 1st, it would eat literally into MBP sales.
# 9 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
So, maybe, the 13.3" MBP would be the iBook replacment?
# 10 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
I fall into that "4000+ posts" category and I haven't a clue. The Mac rumor sites are rife with...nothing...

Just bear in mind that April 1st is also April Fools' Day.

# 20 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
I'm just hoping a new ipod comes out to knock down the price of a 5g
# 21 Re: April 1st, 2006 - Apple 30th Anniversary
I hope it is a new ipod with a bigger screen. I will be in heaven if the screen is bigger and I will buy it the day it comes out.
