Steve Jobs' Keynote at WWDC

So what do we expect to hear tomorrow from Steve Jobs? With no inside information at all, here are my predictions.

I think the following things are quite likely to appear in iOS 5.0:

1. Imminent availability, maybe within a week, but no accompanying hardware (yet)
2. Hugely revised notification system, probably (since they're still hiring people) with more features in 5.1 and 5.2
3. Deep voice control integration. Apple have bought several companies in the voice recognition area and it makes sense for this technology to appear sooner or later
4. iCloud integration for backups, file-sharing, contacts, calendars, email and other data. MobileMe on steroids.

The following things might appear, but seem less likely:

1. Widget system and an improved lock screen. This has been on the wish list for four years and would be nice to have
2. iPhone 5 - now expected in September, probably not appearing tomorrow
3. iPhone Nano - could make an appearance at the end of the keynote but there's loads of other stuff to announce - seems unlikely
4. Apple TV with voice control and apps. Not impossible but not hugely likely.

iCloud will also feature tomorrow and is likely to be tightly integrated into iOS 5.0, both for iPhone/iPod/iPad and Apple TV. I'm hoping to see shared calendars and contact lists so that the wife and I can simplify our data management. File-sharing and backup seems likely, along with over-the-air syncing and upgrades of some sort.

So in total I've made 14 predictions. Check back tomorrow to see how I've done.
