That picture pretty much says it all. During the “Let’s Talk iPhone” event on Tuesday, I kept noticing that seat. “Reserved.” It was weird that the camera kept panning to that shot of the front row in Town Hall.
The room was packed tight with journalists, but there was that one seat left empty in the front row next to all of the other Apple executives. Steve’s seat.
Apple has already posted the video recording of its “Let’s Talk iPhone” event online. You can head over to Apple’s website and watch the 96 minute keynote in its entirety right now.

How do you follow an act like Steve Jobs, the best presenter in the business?
The answer is you can’t, and you shouldn’t even try.
Tim Cook should be given credit for that, even if his performance at the iPhone 4S launch today was subdued and low-key.
Phil Schiller introduced the iPhone 4S today at Apple’s iPhone event. The devices boasts the A5 processor for dual-core graphics, making it 7 times faster than the previous iPhone.
It looks exactly like the iPhone 4. Yeah.
Although all of Apple’s devices lately have been heaving with robust English numbers — the iPhone 4, the iPad 2 — Apple’s has never been afraid to pluck another language’s numerals if it sounded good. Who can forget Cupertino’s dabbling in Latin with the Apple II?
So who’s to say the iPhone 5 will be the iPhone Five? Such must have been the thinking behind Scoopertino’s latest gag, a press release announcing the iPhone Cinco, Apple’s latest and greatest device with a revolutionary snooze button and an incredible new Find My Sombrero app.
Steve Jobs has always been considered the heart and soul of Apple. He’s the man that has brought us Apple’s most successful products of the last decade, including the iPod, the iPhone and the iPad. He’s been the face of Apple for years, and he’s seen as an industry innovator and pioneer.
Since his third medical leave of absence in January of this year, Jobs has begun to slowly let go of the reins at Apple. He’s still very much in control, but the ‘Age of Jobs’ is drawing to an end.
Apple’s eighth major release of the Mac OS X operating system finally hit the Mac App Store on Wednesday, after what seemed like a painfully long wait since it was teased at WWDC in June. Its $29 price tag, coupled with over 250 awesome new features, makes it a ‘no-brainer’ upgrade for anyone using a compatible Mac, and its launch day download numbers certainly prove that.
Apple just announced its all-new Final Cut Pro X video editing software, which is now available from the Mac App Store today along with Motion 5 and Compressor 4.
Apple has ordered 400,000 next-generation MacBook Airs to be built this month for a July launch, and each and every one of them will ship with low-watt versions of Intel’s cutting edge Sandy Bridge processors.
It’s been about a year since Apple updated its Server line-up with new Mac Pro and Mac Mini Servers. Now, constricting supplies of both indicate that a new refresh is coming… just in time for Lion.
