Oops. It appears that Apple may have let the cat out the bag a little early with an accidental email saying “Welcome to iCloud.” As reported by AppleInsider, Apple has allegedly sent out at least one public invite to iCloud prematurely.
iCloud and iOS 5 will be officially announced to the public this Tuesday, although both products have been in beta since Apple’s WWDC conference this past Summer. These email invites will assumedly be sent out in bulk to Apple customers when iCloud launches.
The email invites the customer to “follow these instructions and you’ll be up and running in no time,” but the actual instructions page on Apple’s website has yet to go up.
Let us know if you get one of these emails from Apple: [email protected]
