As expected, tickets for the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) this year were sold out even faster than last year’s 8 days. Tickets, priced at US$1,599, were sold out almost immediately when sales commenced.
Slated to be held from June 6 – 10 at San Francisco’s Moscone West, there is much speculation on whether the iPhone 5 will be launched during the conference. There is also chatter on whether the iOS5 and new Mac OS Lion will be released during the conference.
At any rate, the rapid sell-out of the tickets indicate that the popularity of the Apple ecosystem is showing no signs of losing its momentum, even in the face of competition from Android-based devices and the resurgence of devices based on Windows Phone 7, HP’s webOS and RIM’s BlackBerry Playbook.
