In an astounding feat of deduction, gazed upon the Moscone Center's public calendar and realized that the weeklong, generically labeled "corporate meeting" scheduled for June 11-15 is nothing else but Apple's yearly Worldwide Developer Conference. One clue was probably Apple's practice of scheduling the WWDC for early June. At Moscone Center.

He expects that we can expect all kinds of things to be announced, like iOS 6. And , too, after reading Bell's post.

"The next version of Apple's mobile operating system iOS 6 could be previewed in mid-June, following reports that the date for this year's WWDC has already been set. Last year saw Apple announce iOS 5, which became available alongside the launch of the iPhone 4S in October, so it's likely we'll get a first look at iOS 6."

Past practices show future practices in the iOSsphere. But wait. "Past WWDC events have also seen Apple announce new iPhones. However, Apple broke away from that tradition in 2011 by making us wait until October for the iPhone 4S."

So past practices do not show future practices. Except when they do. So iOS 6 and iPhone 5 either will or will not be announced at the WWDC.
