It is almost the end of January and still no ilife '07 or iWorks '07. By the time that they are released it is going to be time for them to release iLife '08. Anyone have an idea of when anything is going to be reviled.

Just make a big calendar and then throw a dart at it and you will get better results then waiting for apple to release something.

Might well be iWork '08. It won't look outdated next to Office 2008 then.

Who says it will be called iLife '08? Perhaps they are going to rebrand it with an alternative name so that it can be released at the same time as Leopard.

I'm just surprised that we haven't seen anything... strange.

I know, it's only 11 months until 2008 . . .

New iLife and iWork, Leopard only.

Hi bigt0169! Welcome to the MacNN forums.

For future reference, threads about iLife and other software applications go in the Applications forum. I might also add that there have been several threads started on this very issue! You might want to consider contributing to those. A couple are listed below.

Next time, before starting a new thread, you might want to consider searching for the topic, to see if anyone has posted anything about it.

Thread 1 on iLife 07 & iWork 07
Thread 2 on iLife 07

It seems that many people think Apple is going to "weave" iLife into Leopard and discontinue selling it as a separate package. That recent screenshot of the Finder with the media browser thingamajig seems to support that. Either way, I'd love to get at least some more news tidbits on both.

I hope not. While there may be some features that are Leopard only, I think it would be dumb on Apple's part to make it part of the OS. Example: iLife '06 is 10.3.9 or later, but some Garageband features were Tiger only (as well as iWeb, I believe).

I sure hope they do this. Folding iWork into Leopard would be a great idea too. After all, iBooks and iMacs used to come with AppleWorks...
