It only makes sense to focus on the iPhone right now with all the other “iPhone killers” coming out in the next 2 months. Apple has to keep it front and center.

Snow Leopard is nothing flashy, and while developers are excited to use it, there isn't much there that will revolutionize their Mac OS X programs. iPhone 3.0, however, os a completely different story. In addition to it still being an OS still in its infancy and bursting with growth, 3.0 offers developers heretofore unheard of access to the iPhone (primarily doc access, Bluetooth, and in-app purchases) that will likely produce some incredible stuff. That's a big deal, so that's what Apple is promoting.</p> <p>So yes, Mac is taking a major backseat this year, but it is still a core component of Apple and their developer base, and I'm sure it will be back in the spotlight before long.</p> I think they’re right that Mac is primarily a side-note, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
