Steve Jobs Returning to Apple this Month

There is also some speculation that he might be attending Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to announce the new iPhone – and he does have a reputation for making surprise appearances and announcements.

Just in time for a lot of the original iPhone users to pick one up after their two-year contracts expire.
