Will we get any hints about Leopard successor ?

Probably not as Steve will focus on selling Leopard, but who knows... he may "leak" a new feature, just to further differentiate from the crowd.

Leopard has only just been released. There definitely won't be any talk of the next version of OS X before WWDC next Summer, if even then.

WWDC will be software hints for future updates. MacWorld will be updates of consumer software (iTunes, iLife& iWork applications) and a rare occasion of a hardware revisions (on one product). However Apple has repeatedly gotten away from MacWorld and hardware revisions.

So I expect iTunes Music Store announcement, new revision of professional applications and hopefully an AppleTV upgrade. The only way a Mac Pro who be announced would be if there was a whole redesign. This goes for ANY new hardware redesign.

Agree with you 100%!

I want to add that the Apple Display is very long in the tooth. I feel it is time for a revision of the cinema displays.

Then again, the Cinema Display line still fits the MacBook Pro and Mac Pro machines perfectly, is very well designed and actually does _not_ need any kind of refreshing, does it? They could drop the price of the 20" model by half (won't happen) or make the 23" at the price of the 20" (probably won't happen either).

I'm looking forward to anything iPhone/iPod touch related plus that subnotebook or whatever it's going to be. If it has a 13" display as rumored, it's not exactly "sub" in my view, whatever light or thin it is. I'll still have to get one, though.

I would like to see better screen resolutions and at least one with the LED backlight technology included.

You're right, it still fits with the MacBook Pro and Mac Pro line, but they're waaaay to expensive!!!
They should sell them for approx. $300 for 20", $400 for 22" and 600 for the 30"... compared to $199 for a proper HP monitor, $300 is still a lot, but 600 for the cheapest one is, well, over the top!
