Considering the Mac Pro has 100 extra days (3 months) over the MacBook Air since the last update, I'm almost positive the Mac Pro will be updated first. If you factor in that the Mac Pro actually sells better than the MacBook Air, it just makes a Mac Pro update seem even more likely to occur first.

As said above though, NO ONE (Here at least...) has "solid" inside information, and the updates will happen when they happen.

A C2D MBA update probably comes a Tuesday before WWDC. A Core i-series MBA update probably comes at WWDC so its new technology and possibly form factor can be introduced to the public by Sir Steve. I think he surely still believes in ultraportability in computing just as in iPad for entertainment.

We have seen plenty of rumors, but anything is possible from no update to a Core series CPU and dedicated GPU before or at WWDC or no update until 2011 or even EOL... we will never know until we see it on Apple.com. I believe a Mac Pro update will include a change in the form factor as it's time. I say that gets updated for sure at WWDC.

I also think the iPhone and Apple Cinema Displays get updated at WWDC. Apple could just quickly read through the Mac updates at the start of the keynote like it did last year. It took them maybe 15 minutes to get through all of the Mac notebook updates there, then they spent nearly two hours on the iPhone and etc.

I cannot believe this, there are so many products that need serious updates that appear to fall around or during WWDC. The Mac Pro, Macbook Air, iPhone, iPod Shuffle, Cinema Displays, Apple TV(?), the rumoured 6 inch iPad. It's almost as if something much larger is going to occur. Although I do not consider Steve Jobs resignation as possible, due to his view of himself as CEO of Apple as a life as opposed to a job. Apple and Steve Jobs have been known to surprise us, however, despite the large release of new goodies for me to purchase, I think I would be overwhelmed with sadness.

Dude.... Chill... Everything will be fine because Apple keeps making money off what they are selling at the moment. They will probably update the Macbook first for the back to school buying season. Macbook has been known to get updates in May... With what has been rumored though my best guess is that the Macbook will get it's update tomorrow (Tuesday). iPhone will most certainly be updated at WWDC as always. As for the iPod stuff, probably late September as always. Wouldn't be a smart business move to update the iPad so soon, they'd really piss a lot of people off. No guess on the other stuff but i'll be concerned if nothing happens by end of year.

Yeah, pretty crazy with the MacBook updates just appearing on the store and the Apple website with no writeup at all. Wish the same would happen with the Air.
