At the D: All Things Digital Conference, Apple CEO Steve Jobs offered offer two tidbits about upcoming Apple products, notes Reuters.

He hinted that .Mac —the company’s US$99-per-year suite of online services—is about to undergo a big overhaul. After a questioner suggested .mac had failed to live up to lofty expectations, Jobs said: “I couldn’t agree with you more. We’ll make up for lost time in the near future.”

Reuters says that Jobs also enthused about the map software Apple created for the upcoming iPhone. “”The (application) we were able to write … blows away any Google Maps client,” he said. “The experience you have using it is unbelievable.”
