Apple iOS 5 Tech Talk 2011 Tour Set For 9 Cities Around The World
Between the months of November and January Apple will be re-birthing their Tech Talk World Tour with an iOS 5 focus, tutorials, talks, and more set to fill the global events. There's a brand new page up at Apple showing off that there will be limited space at each event and that all iOS Developer Program members are more than welcome to attend. Limited space means that Apple will be giving priority entry to those developers who have n app currently available at the iTunes iOS App Store. The first location will be Berlin and will take place on November 2nd, 2011, and the last will be right down at the lower end of the United States in Austin, Texas, on January 23rd, 2012.
Experts from all over the iOS world will be in attendance at these events which will be taking place in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. There are three stops inside our home turf here in the USA, one in New York, another in Seattle, and another in Austin.
