It's official: Apple press event Sept. 5

by Dave Caolo (Aug 28th, 2007)

We heard a rumor not long ago, and today Engadget confirms the date: Apple will hold a special press event on Sept. 5th. The invitation they received (where's ours, Apple?!?) looks like coverflow as displayed by an iPhone. Hmmm... The invite is as cryptic as always, so I guess it's up to us to ...

Video of Apple's press event is online

by Dave Caolo (Aug 7th, 2007)

However, given the existence of these photos of a purported new iMac keyboard and the fact that our sister blog Engadget was just invited ...

Poll results: New Apple products

by Dave Caolo (Sep 6th, 2006)

TUAW poll results: The big announcement

by Dave Caolo (Mar 2nd, 2006)

You have spoken: The event was....meh. Of the 3,200 of you who voted in our highly unscientific poll, the majority of you (41%) felt that the new product announcements were "mediocre." A full 25% of you labeled the event a "huge disappointment," 19% said the stuff is ...

Flickr Find: I Want to Believe

by Dave Caolo (Feb 27th, 2006)

Alternate title: If Agent Mulder were a Mac geek. Sometimes it's necessary to break the wild speculation and rumor mongering with a bit of humor, and jyunderwood's poster does the trick. This is also a good opportunity to address what's inevitably going to happen tomorrow. Legions of Mac users are ...

Ok, folks, here we go again. Another blurry, nondescript photo of a supposed Apple product has made its way to the web (and what a coincidence, just a day after Apple announces a press event). This time, MacDailyNews is playing host. An anonymous tipster writes: "I was only able to snap one ...
