Blip: WWDC 2013 banners painted with '7' and 'X,' hint at what we're in for

Deck the halls with revealing banners, fa la la la la, la la la la.

That may be the jingle bouncing through Apple's head today as MacStories has just posted some images from San Francisco's Moscone Center - home to next week's WWDC 2013 - showing off banners with the number "7" and a big ol' "X."

While not hard and fast confirmation that we'll see an iOS 7 and OS X 10.9 preview come forth during the company's opening keynote Monday, this is pretty much as close as it gets. The company has stated developers and folks at home "an in depth look at what's next in iOS and OS X."

iOS 7 is said to be a marked departure in design from previous iterations, thanks to the anti-skeumorphic touch of Sir Jony Ive. If you're into reading really closely into things, the solo, elegantly swished 7 and checkered background on the WWDC banner could provide hints to what we're in for Monday.
