WWDC '08 bannersWWDC ‘08 is right around the corner—today is the June 6th and Steve Jobs will take the stage to deliver his keynote speech in Moscone West on the coming Monday. The excitement is palpable…so palpable that it almost makes us go to the thesaurus to find synonyms for “palpable.”

So who can blame us for being super-excited about the first pictures to have appeared on the web from outside Moscone West? The first is a set of six from flickr user ‘gernot’ and the second set comes courtesy of RoughlyDrafted. The latter has some really high quality photographs coupled with relevant descriptions for each one.

A couple of things I noted are that Apple seems to have decided on calling the OS on the iPhone “OS X iPhone” now (they’ve referred to it as OS X, iPhone OS and OS X touch in the past) and the accelerometer is being given a lot of prominence. Also, they seem to come up with even more clever taglines—how about “Xcode 3.0: Debug and conquer” or, even better, “Interface Builder 3.0: Drag and jaw-drop”?
