With so many announcements being made by Apple at the WWDC 2009 keynote some smaller items are often overlooked. Now the initial hype has died down these tidbits can be looked into further.

Apple has posted a web page covering several features of Mac OS Snow Leopard, some of these were discussed during the keynote but many are unknown as some were not even present in previous builds of the operating system due for release in September.

Also the presence of ZFS in Mac OS X Snow Leopard server appears to have vanished, it was initially listed as a major new feature of Snow Leopard server.

During the keynote Scott Forstall demonstrated the use of Geolocation to enable iPhone and MobileMe users to find their iPhone anywhere in the world via the “Find My iPhone” feature. But Apple didn’t mention that it intends to release an iDisk app which will enable iPhone users to view and share files stored on their MobileMe iDisk’s.

Despite the iPhone 3GS being identical in appearance to the iPhone 3G one little piece of information on the Apple website states that the screen now has a fingerprint resistant oleophobic coating.

Finally Apple appears to have sacrificed a digital audio port on the 13-inch MacBook Pro to allow for the new FireWire 800 port and SD card slot.
