I think it’s going to turn into a cat and mouse game between developers and hardware engineers. I think the SDK will give us everything we’ve wanted.

I am content with iPhone and Leopard. I trust there're other exciting products coming down the line and SDK may be the genesis of those. Stay cool!!

It's all just self-fulfilling prophecy. Want to create positive buzz, just right another story from the opposite angle tomorrow and you'll do just as much for the overall: not contribute anything valuable to the discourse. As for Apple, if Jobs said 52 weeks and he's got some announcements coming up in early June, then why speculate now? Shouldn't such a hypotheses be generated only after the finished line is crossed? Just throwing a hunk of meat into the arena to see how it's gobbled up? Guess that's what blogging is all about: contributing to a media machine based on speculation and not hard, objective facts.

Obviously, others have a bigger appetite for block buster releases on a regular basis. I am very happy with a high quality MBP with a slick Leopard under the hood, access to the best apps in the world. But yeah, I'm good. Yes, they have been sufficient for me.

Have the iPhone SDK and Macbook Air been sufficient releases for you ? And these tiny Macbook Pro and Macbook updates ? You think Apple is delivering like they could ?
