What I'm expecting is:

Demo of Leopard, including the "top secret" features mentioned at last years WWDC, and the new interface which will be resolution independent. Also, the release date for Leopard will be announced.

New enclosure for the Mac Pro machines

Apple Phone / iPod (could be one in the same thing) running a cut down version of the Mac OS. Screen size akin to PSP and with a touch screen interface.

Updated machines to use the Core 2 Quad chips, and maybe mention of an 8 core Mac Pro Desktop (people have got current Mac Pro desktops running with 8 cores)

Updates to iLife and iWork

I would like an ARM powered palmtop running OS X. I hope Steve is reading this whilst he's at the show.

If there is an ultra portable then I'm going to wet my pants. iPod Video, or vPod or whatever, is worthless if I have a palmtop

Doubt it'll work in Canada when it's first released either! We had to wait a while before the ROKR got picked up, but hopefully Rogers will pick it up here too.

I'm suprised by the size of it, looks in some pics a bit PSP-ish but looks absolutely mint!

got 16 months left on my contract but the wife is after a new phone...

I never got an iPod Video as I felt the screen was too small, always said that if it was PSP sized it'd be about right
