I'm interested to see if they make any visual tweaks to iOS. It could use a few, especially on the home screen, where the vast majority of wallpapers people might actually use render the icon labels unreadable completely.

This, any high-contrast wallpaper makes the time unreadable when it can't choose if it should display the numbers in black or white.

Awesome, this is early tomorrow. For some reason I thought it was Tuesday. I hope Tim Cooks announces osx is ready to download tomorrow for free and drops the mic.

Super disappointed if that's their approach, basically just copying and pasting elements of iOS over OSX. Blah.

Hating the frosted glass look if that's real. I don't understand their new obsession with frosted.

Say what you want about launchpad, my mom loves that thing and hates finder.

I've no problems with launchpad since you don't even have to use it if you don't want to, and I've noticed it's very accesible to people coming from iOS. Just not sure what's their obsession with frosty glass look. I don't love it on the iPhone either.

This WWDC is an hour earlier than usual, right?

Is Launchpad the thing with some but not all of my program icons that I occasionally invoke and have no idea how I did it?

Yes, it's the iOS looking window that you can launch with the little Rocket icon or if you have a macbook you do a 4 finger gesture bringing your fingers together. It's pretty nifty

I'm looking at the Apple Event images and they generally don't hint at what's coming. WWDC 2013 image kind of hinted at the ios7 redesign, the Sept 2013 event hinted at the iphone 5C colors, but mostly they don't telegraph anything.

Quality control is extremely variable

Even for the "Google devices" like the Nexuses, you get 2 years of support and then they pretend you don't exist any longer (other companies are worse)

Their problem is they don't have an App store, iTunes, or interaction with other devices like the laptop and ipads so there's hardly any incentive to keep a phone up to date if they don't get anything out of it

So basically their problem is they're not Apple

Wtf are you talking about; don't have an app store?

Samsung and HTC and non-google phone makers have their own app stores and content stores? I honestly don't know but I thought they didn't, only Google with their Play store. Do phone manufacturers get a cut from that?
