LIVE: WWDC Hype Reveals Apple’s Need for New Partners + Services
Updated with full video – see below.
Apple may not have launched any show-stopping products in over a year, but the long wait is only heightening the excitement around the iPhone maker’s annual developer conference, WWDC 2013. The event kicks off today, crushing or confirming a long string of rumors that have been brewing these last 12 months.
On today’s SiliconANGLE Live NewsDesk Show, (see live feed below or visit youtube.com/siliconangle to watch on-demand), we discuss the high expectations that have been built up around Apple’s showcase event, which could be a turning point for the iPhone maker as it fights to maintain dominance in an ever differentiating consumer gadget market.
It seems the world is overdue for a new Apple device, and that leaves room for speculation over Apple’s “next big thing.” Will it be an iWatch to compete with Google Glass, or iRadio to evolve its iTunes platform into more of a consumer service? Will iOS 7’s redesign look like Microsoft’s Metro UI, and will we see any new hardware partners, like Intel, emerge from Apple’s possible device launches?
Joining us now to tell us more about Apple’s expected ecosystem update is Senior Contributing Editor John Casaretto. (See the live broadcast, embed below ~ if you missed today’s topic, check our YouTube channel for archived clips.)
