Thoughts on Apple’s WWDC 2009 Keynote

  • Bertrand Serlet’s accent is too strong for a keynote.
  • Bertrand advanced to the slide with Snow Leopard’s price before he said the price out loud. He did that several times. He should have said the price as he put it on screen, not before.
  • The guy who did demos for Bertrand had his back to the crowd. Demonstrators never did that before, they were always facing to the side.
  • None of the presenters handled applause very well. They either weren’t prepared for it or waited for it and it never came.
  • I loved the reaction when Scott said “support for MMS is coming later this summer on AT&T.” Everyone understood that AT&T was the bad guy.
  • Why did everyone laugh when Scott said Safari?
