MacWorld 2007 Expectations
Steve Jobs will hold his MacWorld Expo 2007 keynote on Tuesday at 9am PCT in San Francisco. He better announce something ultra-hot, else he will not be heard as the CES 2007 is in full swing.
There is a chance that Apple might pass on making big announcements because of the buzzing noise of technology news next week. Everybody wants to see of course Steve Jobs pulling out an Apple cell phone as "one more thing".
If there will be no Apple phone, what will be able to match its hype? New iPod? New 802.11n Airport? Now Macs?

CES 2007, Apple MacWorld 2007 and NAIAS 2007
Now that we draw very close to the start of the CES 2007, it hits home that at the same time we also have the Apple MacWorld 2007 and the Detroit Auto Show 2007 happening in parallel.
So between our intense CES coverage, we will have to listen to Steve Jobs what cool new products he is going to launch - maybe the Apple cell phone?
We are not a car news site, but there are always some cool concept cars or new cars shown in Detroit that are interesting for us.
I already ordered a truck load of Red Bull to be able to stay awake during next week. Have fun and visit I4U NEWS to get the latest technology and gadget news from the upcoming big trade-shows.

and has good photos. On the other hand the one on CNET loads super fast.
The MacWorld coverage on Mac Observer is a classic. Gizmodo's live blog is also worth checking out.

Macworld Expo 2006 New Apple Product Rumors
The Macworld Expo 2006 is still over a month away, but the rumors on what Apple will introduce at the show in San Francisco is already getting very concrete.
Apple news site Think Secret reported about a DVR enabled
Apple Mac mini. Apparently, the new Mac mini project is code-named Kaleidoscope and will feature an Intel processor and include both Front Row 2.0 and TiVo-like DVR functionality.
The second rumor is around a new content distribution system featuring a new digital rights management system. The system actually is supposed to cache purchased media online and never be stored on users hard-drive - not sure if that will fly with users. More details on Think Secret (Thanks Larry R.).
