Apple Store goes down ahead of WWDC keynote

That's it folks, the Apple Store has just gone offline ahead of today's WWDC keynote, which begins in a little bit more than two hours. Are you feeling the excitement yet?

As the big event approaches, possible specs of Apple's new MacBooks have leaked, indicating that MacBook Airs will come with 4GB/8GB RAM flavors and a 512GB SSD option. SSD in these new Airs should use SATA3 and some of them are said to be based on Samsung’s crazy fast 830 series.

New MacBook Pro and Mac Pros are also in the cards and the AirPort Express base station is said to be due for an upgrade as well...

iDB is ready for WWDC. Are you?

In case you haven't picked up on it yet, tomorrow's a huge day for the Apple community. Not only is it Day One of  WWDC, but we're also expecting the company to make a number of big announcements.

As presumed, there won't be a live video stream of tomorrow's media event. And a clip of the keynote won't likely be available until hours after it's over. But never fear, as usual, iDB has you covered...

Roundup: what’s on tap for WWDC 2012 tomorrow

With iOS 6 being the main theme of tomorrow's keynote, Apple's chief executive Tim Cook, iOS boss Scott Forstall and marketing head honcho Phil Schiller (aka Mini-Me and Dr. No) will likely share stage time to announce the latest in Apple's mobile operating system powering the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Feeling excited yet?

We're also keeping our eyes peeled for the latest iPhone and Apple TV developments and are expecting shiny new commercials (hopefully they do better than latest celebrity adverts), plus the usual dose of Apple's trademark one-liners, superlatives and hyperbolas.

Here's what we're looking forward to, some of the stuff we've been keeping our fingers crossed for and what the rumor-mill predicted would go down tomorrow...

Purported iOS 6 beta download links leak ahead of WWDC

An intriguing post from the folks over at WeiPhone.com, a Chinese tech forum, is making the rounds on the internet this morning. The post claims to contain a list of official download links for iOS 6 beta and other unreleased software.

With WWDC starting tomorrow, we definitely expect to see developer betas released sometime in the next 24 hours (happened with iOS 5 last year). But if these links are legitimate, then we're all in for some big surprises...

Here’s why Apple yanked Airfoil Speakers Touch app from the App Store

Remember Airfoil Speakers Touch app? Of course you do, this nifty little program from Rogue Amoeba turns your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad into an audio receiver so you can send any audio from your desktop to your iOS device. As you know, Apple pulled it two weeks ago without giving the team much of an explanation only to allow it into the store a few days ago.

Wanna know about Apple's reasoning behind this rejection? Here's an email exchange between Apple's senior vice president of worldwide marketing Phil Schiller (also known internally as Dr. No, you may guess why) and  the Rogue  Amoeba team...

iOS 6 logo spotted on WWDC 2012 banners

Apple started raising banners in San Francisco's Moscone West two days ago, ahead of the big event's keynote scheduled for next Monday, June 11, at 10am Pacific Time.

And just this moment, one guy managed to snap a photo outside the Moscone Center which clearly shows the new iOS 6 logo for the first time on one of the banners.

The photographic evidence confirms that Apple will be showing off iOS 6 so it's news, not a rumor anymore. The logo is pretty elegant and cool-looking, wouldn't you agree?
