Another WWDC is almost upon us, and the excitement is building for the sold-out event. As is customary here at Small Dog Electronics, we’ve made some predictions about what may be announced during Steve Jobs’ keynote on Monday, June 7.
Let it be said that we’re certainly not rumor-mongers, so think of this more like our Apple wish list! (What can we say—we love gadgets and there’s something about these events that makes us giddy!)
