iOS6 - anyone else get the announcement?

got an email late yesterday from Apple about the iOS6 preview. Xcode 4.5? wasn't able to find it in the portal, but i didn't look that hard as i'm not planning to upgrade quite yet. Can't seem to get at the actual release docs today, but the Facebook sheet sounds like the TweetSheet. maybe an easy way to finally simply integrate FB into your app like Twitter! Event Kit and new Camera APIs....

You will need to download the upgraded version of Xcode with the iOS 6 Beta from the Apple Developer Website.

Yup, Keynote was yesterday. New maps too (no more google), Siri Api as well. The final iOS 6 will be in the fall of 2012.

Siri API.... that def caught my eye. don't have or use siri on my phone but i've been suspecting there is a whole industry....(cough, cough, PORN) that has been literally salivating for a Siri API. Hopefully it gets put to more good use than that, i can see where it would be awesome for people with disabilities. but that's a killer market for the technology.
