WWDC 2010 officially announced
At long last, the wait is over. Apple has officially announced WWDC 2010. The "center of the app universe" will take place from June 7th - 11th at Moscone West in sunny San Francisco, California.
This year's event has five major sessions and lab categories: Application Frameworks, Core OS, Developer Tools, Graphics and Media and finally Internet & Web. For those who have wondered if Apple will be giving equal emphasis to traditional Mac development versus the iPhone OS platform, well, this picture says a thousand words. This is not a new OS X year but it is a big new iPhone OS device year and the conference schedule reflects that emphasis.
This is certainly the latest date that Apple has ever announced its WWDC dates in recent years (typically, it's announced in early March -- and once in late January). Developers will be glad to know they can finally schedule the rest of their Spring and Summer. Tickets are on sale now for US$1,599. Just remember, attendees must agree to the Registered Apple Developer Terms and Conditions as part of the conference ticket purchase process.
We'll see you in June!

April 28 2010 at 10:06 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyNo IT track at all this year. I am Very disappointed to see this development. Hope they dont completely ignore the IT side of the street in future events but it looks like iPhone OS is going to be king for a long time and OS X server and desktop not so much...
April 28 2010 at 9:56 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyMy guess is either a change or shift in the App Store (OS X app store as an option but not the sole method of installing apps of course), and the new iPhone. Should be pretty heavy hitting.

The "View session list" links don't work. Some bogus JavaScript?
what are the odds the new iphone looks different than the one that was leaked. I say 90% chance
April 28 2010 at 9:18 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI'd say the chances of Apple changing something that looks so close to final hardware between the leak and the end of June are absolutely zero. There's no way they'd be able to get it to manufacturing in time. I'd be willing to wager that what was leaked was final hardware.
April 28 2010 at 9:56 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down Replythat could have been any prototype. why would they still be field testing a product that is going to be released so soon. I would think they had everything buttoned up by now
April 28 2010 at 10:06 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyWhat corporate event are you referring to?
April 28 2010 at 9:16 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyMight be a hint at a app store for os X, would be nifty with a steamlike service for buying your applications.
