With the infamous Steve Jobs Macworld keynote address mere days away, speculation is, as always, running rampant as to just what new bits of shiny Apple goodness will be announced that year. Last year, as I’m certain you all remember, was the big iPhone unveiling — a milestone in Apple history and a keynote that will surely be remembered for many years to come.

With all the hype, excitement and fever surrounding last year’s Keynote and the Phone reveal (we might have caught a bit of iPhone fever here at TUAW as well), how will that year’s event hope to compete with the exciting announcements of last year and perhaps even, dare I say it, surpass them? Of course, when considering that event and the impending announcements, these questions, and many others, come to mind.

How expanded will Steve talk about the success of iTunes and the iPod before moving on to the other more exciting announcements? Who will be the musical guest? Will Noah Wyle make another appearance? How about

In so doing, we have come up with some interesting, perhaps even controversial, prognostications, pre-visualizations and predictions of what new products and services will be announced at that year’s keynote.

But really, a couple of years ago, who would have thought Apple would get into the cell phone business, let alone become a major player nearly overnight? Exciting, mind-altering and business defining events can sometimes happen in an instant (or 90 minutes) so sit back, relax and consider our Macworld 2008 keynote predictions…
