I can already see the need for a touch device on my Mac Pro. Maybe someday we can even get rig of the darn keyboard too!

Sever is not another OS, but set of apps to run on top of core Lion. Interesting...

Lion ONLY available via Mac app store. 4GB download. Buy once and install on all your Macs! $29.99!!! Killer

Developer preview today. General availability in July.

iOS 5 is to be a "major" release.

200 new features

going to show 10 of those today

1. Notifications - old pop-ups, came up anywhere... new UI called notification center. all in one place. Cool looking UI. Animation on top bar notifies. Better screen lock capability to go directly there if you want. Very cool.

2. News Stand - Magazines & Newspapers. Like iBooks for only for newspapers and magazines

3. Twitter - Built into iPhone. Integrated in Apple apps like Camera etc.
