No Jobs keynote at Apple Expo 2006
Reed Expositions -- the organizing company for Apple Expo in Paris -- today announced that Apple CEO Steve Jobs will not speak at this year's event. Until recently, Jobs was a mainstay of the yearly event which usually takes place at the end of summer. Steve Jobs has often used Apple Expo in the past to showcase new products from Apple that were set to launch for the holidays. The CEO's presence as the keynote speaker is often a sign that a major product announcement is expected, making this year's absence suggestive that the Cupertino-based company will offer only minor updates at best.

I mean it's rough these days to follow the latest rumors because so many of them have proven to be bunk. Even Steve himself promised lots of great things coming out....
WHAAHHHHH! I want new stuff!
There was the iPod nano, iPod video, iTunes 6 and iTMS videos, iMac G5 w/ iSight and Front Row, Dual Core PowerMacs, and Aperture.
Ha ha. Yes, beside completely overhauling the architecture of all of the models, introducing video iPods, things have been "slow."
