  • Rumors abound of what Apple will show off at this year’s WWDC conference for developers. Some say the next major update to its operating system, iOS 5, will make an appearance, while others are saying not to expect any hardware revelations. (In other words, no iPhone, iPad, or Mac hardware refresh announcements.) In fact, Mashable even goes so far as to say the iPhone 5 may be delayed altogether for a fall launch because of the recent introduction of the Verizon iPhone 4. (ReadWriteWeb, Mashable, and The Loop)
