We’re only one day away from WWDC 10! If you’re not familiar with Apple events, the Worldwide Developers Conference is when Apple announces the newest and greatest iPhone. Tomorrow won’t be any different.
I though I’d give you make take on what we might hear from Steve Jobs on Monday ….

By now we’ve all seen the Gizmodo leak of what it claims is the new iPhone expected to be announced and released in June. But since then we’ve seen a few more leaks – and with each one, it appears the Apple phone Gizmodo had its hands on is truly the next generation device.
iPhoneinCanada has found a couple of new videos form Vietnam on YouTube which appear to show the new iPhone. It’s a lot more finished than the one Gizmodo had – but it still doesn’t show the phone actually running any OS.
We know the iPhone is coming to Bell and Telus in November - what we don’t know yet is the official launch day and the cost of the plans. But today there are signs that one of those question might have been answered.
Gizmodo Apple iTablet Mockup
It’s been a very busy few days at the Meador’s Musings household. But what better way to get back into the swing of blogging than a new iTablet rumour. This one would indicate the fabled device will be announced in January and be available in early summer – possibly around the same time as a new iPhone. Remember, the 3GS was released in June.
With the iPods refreshed it’s time to start thinking about the iMac. Well a new rumour says that refresh could be coming before the holiday season.
iTablet Mockup
We had been on quite the roll – at least one iTablet rumour a week – that was until last Wednesday’s “it’s only rock and roll” event. With all the iPod Touch no camera talk, the iTablet sort of slid under the radar – that is until today.

It would appear Apple may indeed have wanted or plans to add a camera to the iPod Touch. The folks at ifixit have done their usual teardown of new devices and found evidence to suggest a camera is on its way.
If you’ve read anything about Apple’s “it’s only rock and roll” event yesterday you know the big news wasn’t what was announced but what wasn’t announced. It’s been all the talk on blogs, tech websites, the media and every other Apple circle – the iPod Touch didn’t get a camera, but the Nano got video recording capability. I even touched on it yesterday. This story isn’t going away any time fast. Not by a long shot.

These finds gets me excited about the possibility of an Apple tablet that can run Mac OS X. The folks over at Cult Of Mac point out a few new features in Snow Leopard that would be ideal for a larger touchscreen device.
Friends don’t let friends buy Apple products on the verge of being updated. If you know someone looking to buy and iPod before September 9th, it is your duty to stop them. Even if you’re at a store and you see someone looking at picking up an iPod, kindly inform them next week they’ll be able to buy an iPod with more features at the same price point.
