iPhone App Marketing shouldn’t be a Field of Dreams.

admin — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 15:09:49 +0000

Peter Cohen over at Macworld has a sobering article for iPhone Developers. He argues that just because you build an iPhone App doesn’t mean users will flock to it. Peter is afraid based on conversations he had with developers at WWDC. That many iPhone developers are not devising ways to promote and market their apps beyond putting it on the Apple store.

It’s Official Mac OS X 10.6 “Snow Leopard” is Intel only.

admin — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 16:18:23 +0000

MacNN is reporting this morning that 10.6 “Snow Leopard” is Intel only. This is the moment our Power PC brethren have been fearing. The beginning of the end of OS X Power PC support. Can Universal Binary support be far behind? Time to pony the cash for a new Intel Mac my friends.

Some of the other system requirements include:

Intel processor
An internal, external, or shared DVD drive
At least 512 MB of RAM (more is recommended for development)
A built-in display or display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
At least 9GB of disk space available, or 12GB of disk space if you install the developer tools.

UPDATED

So today the Apple faithful will get see what we will be paying off, on our credit cards for the next 6 months.
But best of all the rumors will be put to rest and surprises will be had.

“Cue cheesy soap opera music”

Will there be an Apple Tablet?
Will 10.6 leave Power PC uses in the dust?
Will Steve feed his coding multitudes with a fish and a few loafs of bread?

These and other questions should be answered today at 10 a.m. Pacific time or Noon Central Time.

Here are some of the “up to the minute” Keynote news pages for you to pick from:
