WWDC 2006 Expectations

American Technology Reseach analysts provide commentary and predictions on what may come from Apple at WWDC next week.

According to Shaw Wu, they anticipate that Apple's pro desktop will make the move to Intel, with a 70% chance that at least one of the other Mac models could see a speed bump with use of the recently released Core 2 Duo processor.

Meanwhile, new iPods are not expected due at WWDC - but instead are felt to be released in late September-October.

Apple will, of course, be featuring Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5) at WWDC this year as previously reported. There has been little leaked information about the upcoming version of Mac OS X beyond the little-corroborated LoopRumors reports.

As always, MacRumors will provide live coverage of the WWDC Keynote which will take place Monday August 7th.
