Steve Jobs to announce iOS 5 next week at WWDC

It seemed like only yesterday Steve was on stage announcing the iPad 2 and letting us in on how magical it really is and now he back to let us in on iOS 5 among other things next week at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference 2011. Steve Jobs, who is out for a second time on sick leave (1)(2) will be back to announce iOS 5 as well as iCloud and Mac OS X. Steve looked very frail back in March for the iPAd 2 media event and hopefully he has recovered and will be looking a bit more fit. Love him or hate him, Steve Jobs and Apple is good for mobility and helps set the bar for future development. In a very tough handheld device market, iOS 5 needs to set some new magical standards and not lean so heavily on their strength in the tablet market.

iOS 5 is said to be transition away from what we have been used to for so  long with the iPhone and introduce us to widgets and improved notification system. No word on any leaks about the hardware however. Since we know the device is not going to release for at least another 3-4 months, the lid will be kept shut on that. Rumors are very rampant on improved cameras, antennae, A5 dual core processor, and big fingers crossed for a 4” screen.

Stay tuned and we will bring you more coverage coming out of the WWDC as it is announced.
