Per Presseaussendung hat Apple soeben die letzten Gerüchte zur diesjährigen WWDC bestätigt: Die weltweite Entwickler-Konferenz findet heuer vom 11. bis 15. Juni statt.
Ob Apple die nächste iPhone-Generation (iPhone 5? Neues iPhone?) wieder im Frühsommer vorstellen wird, oder sich doch an einem Herbst-Rhythmus orientieren wird, ist derzeit Gegenstand reger Gerüchte.
Etwas sicherer sind wir uns bei der nächsten iOS-Version, diese wird üblicherweise im Rahmen der WWDC Keynote vorgestellt, und in einer ersten Beta-Version für Entwickler ausgeliefert.
Tickets konnte man zum Preis von 1.199 € für kurze Zeit auf developer.apple.com/wwdc erwerben, innerhalb von zwei Stunden waren allerdings schon alle ausverkauft.
