Shocking news, people: Apple might hold WWDC at Moscone West in June, as it has for the past several years. That’s at least the word according to AppleInsider, which just noticed that Moscone West is mysteriously booked from June 28 to July 2 by “Corporate Event,” which has signified upcoming Apple events in the past. If you’ll recall, the original iPhone was released in June of 2007, followed by the iPhone 3G at WWDC 2008 and the iPhone 3GS at WWDC 2009, so the smart money is on another refresh this year — and you can’t have whispers of an iPhone refresh without rumors about it coming to Verizon, so there’s tons of chatter in the air. We’re staying out of that for now, since we haven’t heard anything new or particularly interesting, but we’d like to point out that we’re also due an iPhone SDK event in March on Apple’s campus if Steve holds to pattern — anyone care speculate on what iPhone OS 4.0 might bring to the table?

Scribd positioning self to become Amazon competitor, sell books on Kindle?

The de facto place to buy Kindle books is, of course, Amazon. Given how tightly this allows Bezos & Co. to manage things we’re guessing this is how the company would like to keep it, but there may be direct-to-kindle competition brewing from an unlikely source: Scribd. The site, which started off as a place to dump and share random documents, has been following the YouTube path and is now selling access to fully copyrighted works. Many of those are downloadable as text, Word, or PDF documents, meaning Kindle users can already conjure up some conversion magic and get them on their devices. But, according to Scribd CEO Trip Adler, straight to Kindle distribution is next. The question is: will they be for-pay titles, or only the billions of pages of free content the site offers? Places like Feedbooks and Gutenberg.org let you download free content direct to the Kindle already, but we’re not aware of anyone selling that content yet — other than Amazon, of course.
