WWDC22 is (mostly) online again
You might be disappointed to learn that once again, WWDC is online-only -- mostly.
A select few will be able to attend in person, but for the rest of us, WWDC will be virtual.
It's sure to be a disappointment to the thousands of developers who fly to California to meet fellow devs and mingle with Apple staff.
But a virtual WWDC is better than no WWDC at all, and this year's gathering is sure to be exciting.
Apple will certainly preview iOS 16 and macOS 13. And the company might even unveil its long-gestating AR/VR headset.
Can't wait.

The 2022 iteration of Apple’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference will start June 6. Apple promised Tuesday the event will showcase the latest innovations in iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS — which is code for unveiling the next major upgrades for these operating systems. But once again, the event will take place online, except for a select few folks.
Apple will release AirPods Pro 2 in the second half of 2022, according to TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. And when it does, the new buds will replace the current AirPods Pro rather than joining them in the lineup. That would signal a strategy change, Kuo says. Why? Upgrading of course!
You can get one of Apple’s best products ever for less than $100. That’s how low AirPods 2 just dropped — $60 below the usual price for these wildly popular in-ear headphones. Or you can save a nice chunk of change on AirPods Pro.
Both iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini experienced “dismal” sales performance, according to an analyst.
With its silky-smooth rubber coating and advanced impact technology, Laut's brilliant Huex case is all you need to keep iPhone 13 protected. What’s more, the Huex is fully compatible with MagSafe. Bag yours today in one of four great color options from the Cult of Mac Store.
Focusing on dinosaurs and other ancient animals, the series will feature narration by Sir David Attenborough. The eye-popping trailer shows off Prehistoric Planet's photorealistic visual effects.

Think of the Chipolo Card Spot as a very flat AirTag. Put either device into something valuable and you’ll be able to locate it with your iPhone, whether it’s lost in your home or out in the world. But the Card Spot is slim enough to go into your wallet.
The Tesla CEO earned himself a spot on Twitter’s board after becoming the social media giant’s largest shareholder. He also teased an edit button for tweets, which has been one of the most-requested features.
The next-gen version of its tool for creating 3D games offers “a collection of groundbreaking features for rendering real-time worlds in incredible high-fidelity detail.”
The game, which will be somewhat similar to Siege, will see teams battling it out in familiar locations. Rainbow Six Mobile is being built “from the ground up with mobile usability in mind,” its developers said.
On April 5, 2006, Apple releases the Boot Camp public beta. The software lets users with Intel-based Macs run Windows XP on their machines.

One more thing ...
"Technology is nothing. What's important is that you have a faith in people, that they're basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful things with them. It's not the tools that you have faith in -- tools are just tools. They work, or they don't work. It's people you have faith in or not." -- Steve Jobs
