I'm Jim Mancini, just a laid back everyday kinda guy. I love tech, Apple, audio production, music, UFO's, ghosts, and anything fun and interesting.

There is no larger truth here. This is not a mistake. This is simply a lie, a lie that was told to draw attention and create sympathy at the expense of the actual truth.

I really think Apple will be making the iPad 3 in 5 new colors. Much like they did with the 2nd gen iPod Nano .
Mark Gurman of 9to5Mac cites “reliable sources” and has some part numbers to back it up.
I don’t have any information about this, but it sounds right because I’d imagine Apple will want higher quality video content to show off on the new iPad’s Retina screen. That likely means upgrading current HD iTunes content from 720p to 1080p (which is still less than the new iPad’s supposed resolution of 2048x1536).
And if Apple is going to upgrade iTunes video content to 1080p, they’ll want to have an Apple TV to also take advantage of that content. The current Apple TVs are limited to 720p.
But most interesting may be this “B82” item. Gurman believes it will be an accessory. Perhaps a new remote for the Apple TV? Touch? Voice? We’ll see soon enough.
Apple just announced its Q1 2012 results, and the company booked a $13.06 billion profit on $46.33 billion in revenue, marking the biggest quarter in company history — well over 50 percent larger than its previous record. Apple sold 37.04 million iPhones, 15.43 million iPads and 5.3 million Macs during the quarter, increases of 154 percent, 111 percent, and 26 percent from last year, respectively. iPod sales were down 21 percent to 15.4 million, continuing their slow decline. International sales accounted for 58 percent of the quarter’s results. (via Apple reports massive Q1 2012 results with $13.06b profit on $46.33b in revenue | The Verge)
