This year's keynote at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference is expected to bring some major announcements. Thanks to the posters all around the venue, we already have confirmation about the presence of iOS 6 at the keynote, but we are also expecting to see the refreshed MacBook Pro, new MacBook Air and even revamped Mac Pro models.

Rumours suggest Apple could even unveil Apple TV SDK, a maps app or reveal something regarding the much talked about new TV product from the company.
