Apple is marking its 10th anniversary in retail this Thursday and there are reports of hardware being delivered and locked away, black curtains going up, training downloads for staff and all staff on duty for the 19th in Apple stores.



From SiliconRepublic:

Well, no one is expecting the iPhone 5 (or the iPhone 4S as it is beginning to become known) before September based on manufacturers’ reports citing production not beginning until July for a September launch.

Reports of the iPad 3 arriving in Autumn, or of a smaller slimmer iPad, may be just figments of the rumour mill’s obsessive imagination.
