Lots of new goodies on their way from Apple, many as part of the next major release of OSX, code-named Jaguar. There are plenty of noteworthy features: one that caught my eye is called Redezvous, which will let Macs more easily recognise each other on wired and wireless networks, and share their files. Steve Jobs showed one Mac streaming, wirelessly, an MP3 from another Mac - which raises the question: when is Apple going to do an 802.11-equipped home hub that would allow you to play your MP3 collection through your hi-fi, or watch DVDs & QuickTime movies on your TV? There's also going to be iChat, a new chat application built into the OS which will be "blessed" by AOL. iChat will also boast various easy-to-use file sharing functions, which will doubtless attract the interest of the leaden-footed record companies.
It is also expected that Apple will announce its first rack-mounted server product next week...
