Being the fact that America is basically a country formed by British colonials that over time developed its own colloquilisms I'd say that if anything the British way is correct and that America has skewed the standard over time.
The US isn't even 300 years old. You could point out a million buildings in Europe that are 5x older than the US itself. We're just babies compared to the rest of the world when age and cultural history is considered.
And you think that British English hasn't skewed either. Hell, the British had a huge empire, and if the effects of other languages and cultures on British English aren't as apparent as the US' from immigrants, there's still certainly been an impact. Not to mention that at least some colloquialisms evolved together as neither version is unaffected by the other, and certainly with TV and Radio in the last century that's become even more true. Lastly, even between regions in either country the colloquialisms are going to change. While a New Yorker and someone from Charleston may have less differences than a New Yorker and a Londoner in their speech patterns, it's quite possibly closer than you would think.
I would expect WWDC to be mainly Leopard and iPhone presentation but:
New displays, Thinner and Huge 40" plus.
MacPro extreme configuration. Better graphic cards and maybe new redesign interior architecture.
I think that's it. Maybe "one more thing..." something unexpected and new. But I would be surprise due iPhone release at the end of the month. Apple doesn't want to take the focus away from iPhone.

I doubt: iMacs, iPods and Mac Mini.
Maybe iLife introduction to come along Leopard.
