Whew! Apple left it all out on the table at todays WWDC keynote address. As Phil Schiller said during his portion of the presentation, “Can’t innovate anymore, my [rear end].” Apple came out swinging.

This post will be much more the abbreviated version of posts to come, dissecting each announcement.

First on deck was the new Mac OS.

Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks

Bye, bye big cats – hello California land marks. There was a lot to be announced with the new Mac OS. Finder was a big focus with giving features like Tabs, Tags, and multiscreen support (more on these to come in the OS X post). Apple also tweaked Safari and added a great new feature called iCloud Keychain. iCloud Keychain allows you to have your passwords on any device. If you are familiar with the app 1Password, iCloud Keychain fills that need.

Maps is also coming to Mac. This is great, because if you look at directions on your Mac, you can transfer them to your iPhone within Maps!

An underrated announcement for OSX is iBooks for Mac! This is great, you can now read your books on your Mac if you have it handy, or if you’re a student, textbook functions are awesome. Taking notes within your textbooks is going to be a great feature within iBooks, not to mention making note cards will be a great help.

iWork for iCloud

iWork is a great application for those of us who are not huge fans of Office. The great thing about iWork for iCloud is, like Google Docs, you can access/edit your files from any document from any device with a web browser! The main thing about iWork is that it is a full service suite, unlike Google Docs.

New MacBook Airs

Apple did update the MacBook Air lines with the new Intel 4th generation Core processors. They increased to an ‘all day’ battery life – nine hours of battery in 11″,  the 13″ has 12 hours of battery. Also, Apple has thrown the newer, faster 802.11ac wireless chips into the Airs, that means much faster wireless in your laptop! Apple did also add more hard drive space, doubling the capacity.

New Mac Pro

Apple gave everyone a sneak peak at the next generation Mac Pro, a computer that hasn’t seen an update since 2008. A major shift from the aluminum box to this cylinder shaped machine that is 1/8 the size. Everything has been redone on this machine, and we can’t wait to see more later this year!

New Airport Extreme and Time Capsule

After years Apple finally updated the Airport Extreme and Time Capsule. The biggest takeaway with these is that they are now in 802.11ac, the newest, fastest wireless signal now available.

iTunes Radio

Pandora, Spotify, Last.fm – you have a major new competitor. Apple announced iTunes Radio today, a service just like the ones previously mentioned. Built into any device that has iTunes on it, iTunes Radio will allow you to create stations, and listen/buy the music you love. You’ll be able to listen with ads for free, but if you are an iTunes Match subscriber it will be ad free. This is great because this could eliminate another app on your device!

iOS 7

The headliner of the event was without a doubt iOS 7. Now there was so much announced here that I’ll do a separate post on it, but I’ll give a brief rundown of what we saw.

Apple completely rebuilt iOS with the aide of Jony Ive. Here is a picture to show you what the new iOS looks like:

A major redesign of all the icons, the color scheme, and overall look and feel of the OS. One of the biggest surprises may have been the redesign of the Lock Screen.

Add that to the fact that Apple rebuilt and improved upon: Notification Center, Multitasking, Safari, Photo and Camera Apps, and they added features like Control Center, Parallax screen viewing, Airdrop and more! This was a ground up redesign and it’s awesome. Not to mention Siri got a facelift with new voice options, and they sound much less computerized and more human. Partner this with iOS in Car, when you plug your iPhone into approved cars, you’ll get a simplified iOS display on the cars HUD and you’ll have Siri integrated into the car. Keep your eyes peeled for a more detailed breakdown of iOS 7 coming very soon.

WWDC 2013 didn’t disappoint – too bad we have to wait until fall to see most of  this stuff.
