To kick off this year’s Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday morning, Apple presented a video lampooning the lengths to which companies go to produce gala keynote presentations. The sketch stars SNL’s Bill Hader as the director “rehearsing” for the WWDC keynote – with disastrous results. It also features a number of celebrity cameos, shout outs to popular apps, and inside references to Silicon Valley culture.
Apple’s 2015 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) launches with a keynote this morning. Expect big announcements about the next versions of OS X and iOS, along with developer-centric news about the Swift programming language and a Software Development Kit (SDK) for the Apple Watch. You can read some educated guesses about additional announcements over on Ars Technica.
If you’d like to experience each technological bombshell as it lands, Apple will be broadcasting the keynote live on their site – but you’ll only be able to watch it in their Safari browser, running on either a Mac or an iOS device, or on a 2nd-generation or later Apple TV.
In addition, a number of tech and business sites will be liveblogging the event:
THIS WEEK: Assorted SKECH iPhone Covers for just 99¢ each (reg. $19.99 – $34.99)
One of the best DOTW’s we’ve ever offered! No, none of these cases will work with iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus. But if you have an iPhone 4, 4S, 5, 5S or 5c, check underneath those couch cushions. All you’ll need is 99 pennies to own a stylish, high-quality, brand-name case worth many, many times more than that.
These cases retail for as much as $35, but as this week’s DOTW, we’re positively obliterating that price and selling every model for just 99 cents!
This offer runs from Friday, June 5th to Thursday, June 11th, 2015, or while supplies last. Sorry, no rain checks.
It’s the home remote that uses your smartphone to control devices.Connect your power outlets to your Wi-Fi home network and control your devices from anywhere you have an Internet connection. Works with iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Android.
This starter pack gives you two remote outlets, a great way to get started on building a complete home automation network. Belkin makes dozens of additional accessories and controllers, so you can build out on this for years to come.
And we’ll make it as affordable as possible. These two-packs normally sell for $100, but as this week’s DOTW, we’re slashing that price in half!
This offer runs from Friday, May 29th to Thursday, June 4th, 2015, or while supplies last. Sorry, no rain checks.
So here we are: Graduation and Father’s Day. What’s the best gift for your dad or grad?
Connecting Point has a simple solution for both: A new Mac!
College-bound grads get a competitive edge with a new MacBook, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro.
And Dad gets something he’ll use and appreciate all year ‘round with a portable Mac — or maybe he’d prefer the sleek, all-in-one brilliance of an iMac desktop.
Connecting Point wants to make it easy. This weekend, buy any new Mac with AppleCare, and get a $50 Connecting Point gift card.
You may also opt to get a highly capable $100 EPSON Expression XP-310 All-in-One printer/scanner/copier/fax for half price!*
And if you bring in your old computer, Mac or PC, working or not, we’ll give you an additional $50 credit toward your new Mac. And yes, you can combine this with both of the first two offers, saving yourself $150 in the process.
Get your new Mac from the the experts who know Apple best. Connecting Point offers four decades experience, introductory classes, free iCoach sessions, special financing, and complimentary up-and-running tech support.
It’s the DADS AND GRADS MAC SALE at Connecting Point, this weekend, Friday, May 29th through Monday, June 1st.
