Jobs confirmed... for least surprising keynote ever?
Today Apple made it official; chief executive Steve jobs will deliver the keynote for this year's World Wide Developer Conference.
That El Jobso would be the one to make the keynote address would suggest that Apple is planning a fairly major announcement. In this case, however, there may not be much of a surprise to the announcement.
Given the recent drama surrounding Apple, much of the planned announcement has likely already been exposed - the recent loss of an iPhone prototype and its subsequent resurfacing on Gizmodo. Among the reported features are a new casing design, a pair of cameras for both video capture and video chat, a longer battery life and a new HD video screen.
Given the outrage over the leak and the effort Apple has put into tracking down and retrieving the iPhone, it's a safe bet that most, if not all of the beans have been spilled. On the other hand, Jobs and company have always been good at keeping secrets, and even if Gizmodo got everything right there's a good chance that WWDC will include more than a couple new features that even well-paid blog leaks couldn't dig up.
