    Well... since there are only 2 weeks left until the WWDC, I thought I'd just start this now, I can't help it... It's the next big thing for me.

    First let me start out by posting the information about the WWDC..

    June 8-12 2009 in San Francisco

    Keynote
    Monday, June 8, 2009

    The Apple Worldwide Developers Conference 2009 will kick off with a keynote address on Monday, June 8 at 10:00 a.m. A team of Apple executives, led by Phillip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, will deliver the keynote address.

    In the Keynote, they usually introduce everything that will be shown in the WWDC... which will include the new iPhone.

    Now, I posted a thread earlier about a rumor that there would be a new iPhone coming out this year... I'll bring some of the rumors of what's to be on the iPhone to this thread.

    This one is from another thread and Faos posted this, Thanks Faos!

    Here's some new stuff that's been rumored over the last few days...

    http://www.iphonebuzz.com/new-iphone-could-go-on-sale-july-17-217351.php

    http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/05/22/iphone_rumored_to_get_wireless_movie_tv_downloads.html

    Well.. hopefully the new iPhone pans out to be better than the 3G one.. the new 3.0 software is also coming out and that should really help the phone grow even more.

    I'll prob post updates from the WWDC here when it starts on that morning with pics and stuff... but yeah I'm really excited for this phone to come out! :D

    Very exciting stuff for nerds/techies (I am one of them). Looking forward to it!

    Also, you should win the award for longest/largest post.

    Actually... that has been rumored also. I doubt it's on there.. but I can see video call being on there soon just because of the video camera.

    I'm wondering what Apple will be offering along with their educational discount. I think they gave away a free iPod Touch last year with purchase of a Mac.

    Any info out there yet? I'm waiting to find out before I get a new computer....

    I doubt there will be any giveaways as far as the iPhone goes... I think they are trying to make as much money off of each customer as possible... FAN discounts are basically the only way I see any lowering of the price. I'm not sure how FAN discounts will work this year though.

    Yeah, I didn't think they'd give away an iPhone or something. Just wondering what they might do because they always do something. The rep at the Apple Store told me to wait til the summer when they offer other educational incentives and I've been failing at digging up anything rumor-wise on the subject.

    Yeah, I don't think they would offering any educational discounts towards it just because they really hate applying discounts to the phone.

    looks cool, but using a wheel to type is not very efficient.

    and that guy at the end is a tool. did they say 45 minutes to type an email?

    not quite on the level of asking if something "similar to the Nigerian scam e-mail" is a scam..
