Last Minute WWDC 2012 Rumours: New Mac Specs, New Native iOS Apps, Apple Store Down

With the kick off of WWDC 2012 just under an hour away, here’s a quick round up of some last minute rumours to keep you occupied.

Clayton Morris from FOX News sent out the following tweet to note his sources indicate two new native iOS apps are set to debut today, with Maps being one of them. As for the other, it could be the ‘Organize’ app, which is supposed to be a digital pocket of some sort.

Just as a teaser, here are some things I expect today. Multiple sources tell me we’ll see at least two new native iOS apps from Apple.
