Steve Jobs will not give Apple Expo Paris keynote

With all the drama the French are causing for him over there, he shouldn't go...

But does that mean there won't be any new products? Or, even without keynote, there might be some new cool stuff?

I sure hope he's not sick. I love that guy.

We don't know if he's sick. We can think that he is from watching the keynote at WWDC, but there are often times when I'll look sick but I'm not. He didn't do a keynote last year at Paris. It's probably a bit costly to do one over there. Just deal with it. There'll be updated products.

It depends on what cancer Steve has / had? Some cancer treatments will not allow people to travel or go abroad despite how wealthy and insured they are. However, looking at the recent keynote I would actually agree that Steve Jobs is ill / battling an agressive form of cancer, though having a good day when he appeared on stage this month - it happens with cancer patients - they rally.

I would estimate if he is battling an agrressive form of cancer - 12 / 18 months. I have been there and seen it...

Kinda glad I didn't book tickets after all.

when he doesn't give keynotes, he's oftentimes very ill, yes

>Steve Jobs will not give Apple Expo Paris keynote

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this not the first sign of the end of the world as we know it?

does this lend any support to the theory that he is very ill?

"This does add credibility to the 'Steve Jobs is ill' parade..."

Hopefully the bloggers (not here) who led that parade will note that he didn't do the keynote last year either (the year after his health problems) but it had nothing to do with his health. There was simply nothing to merit a keynote presentation. A Jobs keynote has the industry on the edge of their seats waiting for new product. Simple enough explanation... no major product announcement, no Steve Jobs. He's not going to spend two hours on stage in Paris repeating old news.
