If I remember my history correctly, Apple does sneak out a few small updates to its product line just before any expected large updates during the Expo or the WWDC. Which is my way of saying that Ars Technica has a rumor that Apple will have television shows on iTunes in Canada real soon now.
And if past rumors are accurate, this will also be the month where iTunes expand geographically — perhaps into Singapore, where Apple has been trying to get "unauthorised" iPhones off the shelf space.

If it isn't clear—and apparently it's not at Apple—the problem with the Apple TV is that its fate is ultimately in the hands of the content owners, not Apple. Those still thinking Steve Jobs will work out a deal with the movie studios like he did with the music labels need to understand that is exactly why he won't get such a deal.

In spite of its convergence appeal, the iPhone won't yet crave into the iPod's success — but it checks off many of the boxes needed for a future windfall, according to an investor note from analyst firm Piper Jaffray.
Perhaps, we are all waiting for the "hell freezes over" event, just like the Windows' iPod: the Great Unlocking Of The iPhone. (Or maybe the SDK will be enough?)

In the Middle Ages traveling minstrels roamed between castles and manors, providing musical entertainment for royalty. Sarah Grenier has much in common with those performers of old: She divides her time on the road, bringing musical instruction to students at two Southern California elementary schools. Grenier leaves the mandolin and lute at home, however. Instead, her teaching instruments of choice are a MacBook computer and an iPod. Still, the caliber of education she provides is fit for all future kings and queens.

As long as Jobs loves going to work every day, anyone with their eye on the CEO job will likely have a long wait.
