Ladies and Gentleman: Let's Talk iPhone



Any minute now Tim Cook will take the stage up in the bay area at Apples HQ theater, 4 Infinite Loop. What will we see today? Well I suspect this post will be updated. The lights have dimmed and the show is on.

[Update  10:15]  Time Cook has taken the time to talking shop on stage. The Macbook Pro and the iMac have become the best selling notebook/desktop in America, oh and they threw a mention to that thing I think is called an iPod (that has a lot of market share). As I type Tim is talking iPhone market "More coming up on iPhones..." as he moves on to iPad.

[Update  10:30]  Scott Forstall has been invited to the stage. He is talking iOS and App Store. He is talking about iOS 5's announced new features. New Lockscreen, Notification Center, iMessage, Reminders, "deep" Twitter integration and Newstand. "Comes with more than 200 new user features".

[Update  10:36] iOS 5 will drop for iPhone 4/3GS, iPad/iPad2 and the most recent Touch's on October 12th! (No mention of iPhone 4S/5)

[Update  10:39] Eddy Cue has taken over from Scott with a recap on iCloud and iTunes in the Cloud. Most of this has been heard before at WWDC. People in the crowd are getting anxious waiting for a new announcements. iCloud will launch October 12th (I see something to this 10/12 date *hint*) and iTunes Match will be $24.99/year and launch at the end of October in the U.S.

[Update  10:46] Phil Schiller is on stage talking iPod hardware. New iPod Nano being announced. They are adding new clock faces for those that wear it as a watch (really?). It will come in seven colors and is now priced at $129 for 8GB and $149 for 16GB. Available today.


[Update  10:46] Next is a new iPod Touch. It will run iOS 5 with all it's wonderful features, now comes in white also. 8GB was priced at $229 now it's $199 with the 32GB coming in at $299 and 64GB at $399. Available October 12th. (That date again.)


[Update  10:54] Next up is iPhone, and here it is "[We are]Pleased to tell you about the brand new iPhone 4S". More to come just click through the break (Hit the Rawr just below) to hear what's next.
