Jobs WWDC keynote to showcase OS X, iPhone

Apple detailed Tuesday the content of Jobs' keynote at WWDC, in a sort of confirmation that announcements there will involve the iPhone..

As expected, the keynote will take place on the first day of the conference, June 9, at 10am. According to a statement from the company, Jobs will be joined by "a team of Apple executives" to show off the company's current operating system.

The news also marks the first time that the company has referred to the iPhone operating system as "OS X iPhone." This isn't a change in the coding of the iPhone software per se -- it has always been based on OS X "Leopard."

What it may be, however, is a move by Apple to start connecting the two products together in consumer's minds, and begin to leverage the success of the iPhone to win even more converts to the Macintosh platform.

Of course, there was no word as to what exactly will be shown, although analysts last month pointed to the keynote as the likely event where the 3G iPhone will make its debut.

Apple will devote an entire track at WWDC to development for the iPhone, as well as teach the intricacies of the iPhone SDK and the App Store. The sessions will cover features such as Multi-Touch, animation, and API usage, among others.

Attendees will be able to select from over 150 sessions and labs, and are invited to bring their own code to work one-on-one with Apple developers, the company said.

Registration for WWDC is still available from Apple's website at a rate of $1,595 per person. Attendees must either be an ADC member or registered iPhone developer to attend.

The entire conference runs from June 9-13.
