Reading Time: 3 minutes

MacWorld 2008Oliver von aptgetupdate.de will im MacRumor Forum die Keynote für die MacWorld gefunden haben, welche demnächst statt findet. Jedoch ist er sich selber auch nicht so sicher, ob die Keynote tatsächlich bereits durchsickern konnte. Eines aber bleibt sicher, diese Version der Keynote hört sich so an wie die Wunschliste vieler Apple-Jünger:

Für meinen Geschmack erfüllt die Liste ein paar Wünsche zuviel! Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen das Jobs und seine Mannen gleich so viele Updates und Neuerungen auf den Markt werfen. Aber ich bin mit Oliver einverstanden, wenn er sich trotz aller Skepsis wünscht, dass die Keynote von Jobs am 15. Januar genau so aussehen sollte.
