Apple Worldwide Developers Conference to Kick Off June 6 at Moscone West in San Francisco

We’ve just been sent this Press Release from Apple announcing the WWDC on June 06, 2011 through to June 10th. Phil Schiller went on to mention, ‘at this year’s conference we are going to unveil the future of iOS and Mac OS, if you are an iOS or Mac OS X software developer, this is the event that you do no want to miss’. That’s great, thanks for that Phil, I guess that means iOS 5 and Mac OS X Lion and what we really desperately want to see, the iPhone 5.

Fantastic, see you there folks.
