Apple iPhone Hints At Future OSX Look?
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re also subscribing to a feed that has recently informed you about the new Apple iPhone. You might have even heard that the next Mac OS X will probably get a new UI.
Keeping this in mind and looking at the video depicting the phone aspect of the iPhone, I’m wondering if we aren’t being dropped hints at the new OSX look. I spy some iTunes 7 like chrome and some new fancy semi transparent (* cough * Vista) black glass. Your thoughts?

I’m thinking “steve”. After all, “Americans” use SMS muchos less than the rest of us do, and/or Steve thinks mail is better cos it has pictures, etc.
I bet the phone companies would like to see the SMS button there too instead, as it’s a lot more profitable for them.
On the talk of transparent, black glass, I just wanted to throw this into the discussion:

Especially this:

Sure, these are old, and from the “rumors” post I linked in this entry, but that is black glass, and it DOES look very similar to that on the iPhone.
It makes you shine, Joen, your honesty regarding flip-flopping. It’s not necessarily hypocrisy if someone simply helped you change your mind. But that’s some irrelevant philosophy.
I dig the iPhone. I think it’s a preview of Leopard. I think it’s a great manifestation of what Apple is all about. The most important part, however, of the keynote, was the ending. At which point Steve thanked the families. It made clear one very important thing: Apple does not do magic. Apple employs human beings with lives and love and brains who work their asses off. That was the big thing for me, and I think it will have its results.
Thanks. I do try to be honest.
This just made me think: how long until we all use Wacom Cintiq like computers and control them a la the iPhone multi touch display? I’d love it. Use fingers for most stuff, pick up a pen when I want precision. Suddenly this seems like the logical next step.
I just want a PADD.
You should check out the LG KE850 too - looks excellent (and was previewed before the iPhone!):
