So any die-hard Appleholic knows that next week is a big week. Why? Apple has their annual WWDC meeting where Steve Jobs will announce Apple’s new products/plans/updates. I must admit, I feel like Christmas is on Monday (when Steve Jobs takes the stage). This is a big deal for all of us who love Apple. Thanks to some of the insider blogs (Engadget, Gizmodo, TUAW), here are the rumors of what’s to occur next week. Will they be right?

(1) iPhone 3G - according to many insiders, Apple will announce their 2.0 iPhone which is rumored to have GPS, 3G capability and several more features. Read more here.

(2) iPhone Applications (iPhone SDK) - for the rest of us who already have an iPhone and don’t plan on shelling out another rent payment to get a new one just yet, the iPhone SDK (Software Development Kit) is supposed to be announced. Some sites report that we will be able to purchase 3rd party applications from iTunes as early as Monday.

(3) Snow Leopard (10.6) - Several sites are reporting that Leopard 10.6 will be announced (otherwise known as Snow Leopard) which will improve speed and security for Mac’s successful Leopard operating system. Click here to read more about that.

Needless to say, next Monday will be an exciting day as will the rest of the week when the world will see what Apple is going to announce. I don’t know about you, but I’m waiting on pins and needles!

Which rumors do you think will come true? What else have you heard that Apple will announce? Leave your comments below!

For those of you who have noticed I haven’t blogged much lately is because of two reasons.

(1) My Macbook which I adore, love, like, want to make out with, etc. hahaha - seriously, I love it. I’ve been on it 24/7 and since I’m a switcher as I’ve discussed earlier, I am spending the majority of my time on here downloading new programs, buying games, customizing everything to customize for my tastes etc. Oh yeah, I also work 45 to 60 hours per week so it’s been a busy week….

(2) I have been patiently waiting for Steve Jobs and Apple’s MacWorld to start (1 day and counting) in San Francisco. Since I am still a Mac newbie, I’ve never been to Macworld nor have I ever heard Steve Jobs speak. But you can find me per my twitter (jeffmccord) or pownce (jeffmccord) and you will see where I plan to watch Steve’s keynote LIVE.

I will also not bore you by giving you the rumors and predictions of what products will come out, what ones will be re-released and updated, and the other “hoopla” that generally goes on there from what I recall. Will it be a smaller Macbook in silver or black with more RAM and more HD space and a combo drive? Will it be that the iPhone will be heading to 3g soon…. sometime in late summer? Could it also be that Steve will announce that we can now rent movies for 24 hours on iTunes? He’ll also show for those of YOU who haven’t jailbreaked your iPhone how to do the same options we all have been doing for months.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend! Here comes MacWorld…
