I'm not .. it's going to make for a really boring news day .. bets are that Techmeme will be running 90% Apple nonsense with the rest regulated to bottom section of the page

I'm with Steven. You could make the argument I'm an Apple nut, but I'm not excited about SteveNotes the way I used to be. What am I supposed to do? Upgrade at every product rev?
- Louis Gray
I think it's the lack of new and exciting things Apple could produce or have in its back pocket, or rather the lack of the imagination of people who follow the keynotes. A few years back, there was a possible iPhone, video iPod, iTablet, switch off of PowerPC... now, out of that list, the only one left is the tablet. So what fills the void? OH GOD NEW VERSION OF X PRODUCT YES. Not very compelling.

@Louis - <GASP> you mean you don't wait breathless with wallet in hand on His Jobness's word? ........ :)

I'm excited, but I"M GETTING AN IPHONE. WHEE! Sorry... what were we talking about?
- Cyndy
While I was underwhelmed by MacWorld, I have high hopes for WWDC after Apple's roadmap event a few months ago. Quite frankly I think I'm more excited for the 2.0 software than the 3G iPhone itself - can't wait to see what developers come up with for it. I just think that while it is overhyped (like all things Apple), this really could down as one of those times where sometime transformative was unveiled.

I'm with Cyndy. I'm dumbly excited for one reason only - new phone for me!! So if it turns out we're all suckers and he's introducing a new Macbook instead, or other such nonsense, I'll be crying into my pillow all week long.

I am with Gabe of Techmeme. He says iPhone will be top news UNLESS something more interesting happens.
- Robert Scoble
I agree Robert. Tomorrow, Techmeme will be Jobsmeme

It would be pretty sweet if Microsoft could figure out a way to buy Yahoo before 10am! ;-)

I just hope I can buy a new iPhone, and have them drop the price a few hundred dollars the second I'm handed my receipt.
- shaun mclane
@Robert as interesting as that might be I still think that just because it is Steve Jobs and given the preponerance of Mac users in the Web 2.0 sphere the Apple news would win out :)
- Steven Hodson
It's ok to be excited but still set lower expectations. New Apple shiny will be a pleasant departure from current tech news...
- Bwana ☠
I'm also looking forward to the iPhone 2.0 firmware update more than the new iPhone. Once the firmware is released, we'll finally be able to see the full power of this mobile version of OS X. RIM and MS will once again be chasing Jobs and company.

I love Apple products but I am really tired of the Apple hype. Apple has bloggers and the news media by their short hairs.
