Apple to Unveil iOS 5, iCloud and Lion at WWDC
May 31st
Apple will be unveiling iOS 5, iCloud and Lion at WWDC on June 6th. It should make for a very exciting event this year. I have been using Lion for awhile now and the last two updates have been very stable. The iCloud service is what I’m most anticipating. I’m hoping I can keep my tunes online and can access them from anywhere. Since all three products are being announced at once I’m guessing there are some major tie-ins with each other. The full press release is below.
CUPERTINO, California—May 31, 2011—Apple® CEO Steve Jobs and a team of Apple executives will kick off the company’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) with a keynote address on Monday, June 6 at 10:00 a.m. At the keynote, Apple will unveil its next generation software – Lion, the eighth major release of Mac OS® X; iOS 5, the next version of Apple’s advanced mobile operating system which powers the iPad®, iPhone® and iPod touch®; and iCloud®, Apple’s upcoming cloud services offering.

Apple Live Streaming Event Tomorrow
Aug 31st
Apple announced that it will be live streaming the event tomorrow. It isn’t the first time Apple has live streamed a event but it’s been a long time. I wondering if the streaming the event might be a hint at an announcement about streaming. I hope so. I would prefer the live stream but there will still be lots of sites live blogging the event as well. Not every office allows you to stream videos but you still want to know what’s going on.
