Apple announces final Mac World in January, Steve Jobs will not deliver keynote



This will shock a lot of people but a press release from Apple just released this afternoon stating that this coming MacWorld in January will be the last, and Steve Jobs won't be on hand to say goodbye. MacWorld has been a launching point for some of Apple's most important consumer products to date. In the press release Apple states the following for the shift from MacWorld:

Apple is reaching more people in more ways than ever before, so like many companies, trade shows have become a very minor part of how Apple reaches its customers. The increasing popularity of Apple's Retail Stores, which more than 3.5 million people visit every week, and the Apple.com website enable Apple to directly reach more than a hundred million customers around the world in innovative new ways.

Some of this is true but I find it very hard to believe that such a high profile event would be canceled after January. Will this be the return of Apple to CES as they enter the consumer's homes?

Read the entire press release here.

Hi!
You may probably be very curious to know how one can make real money on investments.
There is no need to invest much at first.
You may commense earning with a money that usually goes
on daily food, that's 20-100 dollars.
I have been participating in one company's work for several years,
and I'll be glad to share my secrets at my blog.

Please visit my pages and send me private message to get the info.

P.S. I earn 1000-2000 per day now.

I share a love-hate relationship with digital memory because of how prices are always,and I mean always falling. I absolutely hate buying Micro SD Cards for my R4 / R4i at (what seems to be) a cheap price only to see it become ten percent cheaper a few months later.

I still think that trade shows are a huge part of how to reach customers. The hardcore technology buzzed customers will come visit trade shows to look around at products.

At this time it appears like Movable Type is the top
blogging platform available right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

Hello! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any
problems with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several
weeks of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any methods
to protect against hackers?

[url=http://www.christianlouboutintosale.co.uk]christian louboutin[/url] How does this relate to a core competency - the ability to deduce information from what one is given and to ask insightful questions - to the future? When we who have supplied the answers from our years of experience are gone, how will others learn to puzzle out the answers - or even the additional questions - with no one to ask? Will they - you - be able to ask the questions because of a deeper understanding of an industry's history or a general curiosity? And for today, how will you - we - be able to puzzle out a situation, say, on site, when there is no one to ask? How will your critical thinking skills be amassed now to use later?
