Previously I mentioned I was working on a iPad version of Mussedo (Mussedo HD) but it doesn’t look like I’ll release it at the same time I launch Mussedo for iPhone. The reason for this is syncing between the two. I’d much rather have a way built into the App to sync between multiple devices. This is where I’m stopping for now. At some point I may build a sync mechanism into Mussedo but at the moment I’m sticking with the (single) iPhone version.

Before I mentioned Mussedo when I announced the launch of Sysios. I’ve done a little work and I’m considering launching an iPad version of Mussedo along with the iPhone and iPod touch version.

I wanted to see how long it would take to convert Mussedo for iPhone over to iPad. Initially I thought it would take weeks, but after an hour I had something that was 50% or more complete. After about 5-hours (or an evening of coding) it’s about 80-90% complete.

Because the iPad and iPhone use more or less the same APIs it’s an easy conversion.

Over on my Mac forum I’ve posted a list of items I think Apple may announce tomorrow at the WWDC 10 Keynote.

My top picks:

• New iPhone – I’m almost positive Apple will announce a new iPhone tomorrow, probably calling it iPhone 4, iPhone HD or just iPhone.
• iPhone OS 4.0 – Apple will probably preview more of iPhone OS 4.0 and give a sold release date (probably within a few weeks or a month, my best guess is sometime just before the new iPhone is available).
• iPad OS 4.0 – Apple has already said that iPad OS 4.0 will not be available until after summer, but I’m betting developers will get a SDK.
• Mac OS X 10.7 – While I think they’ll talk about it there will probably be a developer preview and a name (at best).

Wild cards:

• Apple TV – A refresh of the Apple TV, I’m thinking more of an Xbox/PS3 as far as games/Apps and an overhaul of the existing functions. Also Apple’s Game Center in iPhone OS 4.0 ties into this idea nicely.
• iWork/iLife 10 – Both iWork and iLife are still on the 09 versions, usually they are updated early in the year but it’s never too late to push out a small update and charge people money for a feature or two they’ll never use.

I went by my local Apple store this morning and picked up an iPad with a friend. I’m posting this from the WordPress iPad app! I’ve got some pictures from the event and I’ll post them up on OSX411 sometime soon. My dad got his shipped and it didn’t come until after I was back and we had eaten lunch.
