Just yesterday we showed you some rumored images of the purported iPad 3 casing compared to the current iPad 2. Well, another day and we have another supposed leaked part.
This time around it's the front and glass digitizer assembly which, according to MacRumors, come by way of Sina Weibo, the Chinese micro-blogging site. It appears to show that there are very few noticeable differences from the iPad 2 set-up...

After months of back and fourth between Apple and Proview, we're about ready for this silly dispute to come to an end. The monitor-maker is currently blocking iPad sales in a number of south China cities over 'trademark infringement.'
But it appears that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Times of India is reporting that Proview's lawyer Xie Xianghui has said that his company is preparing for negotiations with Apple in an effort to settle this matter out of court...
All the talk these days – at least before all the iPad 3 rumors took over – has been about the much anticipated Apple Television. Apple has certainly not announced anything, and some of us still are not convinced that Apple needs to enter a crowded market, but those rumors just keep on coming.
I'm one of those that just doesn't see why Apple needs to bring a television to market, especially considering there are already hundreds of TV manufacturers in the space that are all scrambling for market share. If Apple is to make an impact, then it needs to offer something that nobody else can. Something that differentiates.
The Apple TV that we currently know and love is a sign that Apple doesn't yet take the home entertainment business seriously. Famously called a "hobby," the Apple TV is a box that is full of potential yet seems almost held back. Almost neutered...
Last Fall, word got out that Apple was planning to build a solar energy farm to power its newly-built data center in North Carolina. The facility, which hosts a bulk of Apple's iCloud service, went live during the Summer of last year.
We knew the solar energy farm was going to be massive, but we had no idea how big. Today, in a company-wide environmental footprint report, Apple announced that the array is going to be one of the largest in the nation...
The rumor mill has been turning like crazy over the last few months. It seems like we've heard constant gossip regarding Apple's upcoming iPad refresh, and even more on the possibility of the company entering the TV industry this year.
But that doesn't mean that people have forgotten about the next iPhone. After a seeing just a minor update last year, folks are anticipating Apple's handset line to get a significant makeover this Fall. The one we all expected to see last year...
Having trouble keeping track of all of Apple's legal entanglements? We don't blame you. The company is currently engaged in courtroom battles around the world with both Samsung and Motorola, and is in an ongoing fight with HTC here in the US.
But it seems as though the latter spat is starting to wind down. The ITC just dismissed HTC's final complaint against Apple, and unless the Taiwanese manufacturer wins an appeal, the two-year old lawsuit could finally be coming to an end...
We know, these iPad 3 rumors are starting to get a bit ridiculous. In the last two days we've seen images of the purported tablet, and learned that its processor may (or may not) be called the A5X.
Now 9to5Mac is reporting that it has come across photos of what appears to be an iPad 3 Retina display production line. The images were uncovered on a Chinese forum along with some interesting details regarding the tablet...
We recently told you about the success of the App Store in reaching nearly 25 billion Downloads. That's a truly amazing statistic. In that 25 billion there will no doubt be some good apps, some poor apps and some down right ugly apps. The good folks over at Redmond Pie have come across a fine little app called 'Mactracker' which definitely fits in the good section.
Mactracker is one for the nostalgic Apple fans out there, offering in depth details on every Apple computer ever made with full technical specifications including things like processor speed, memory details, graphics card, optical drives, supported OS versions, expansion options and more. The App covers all bases right back from 1984 to present day...
Well we all saw this coming. Electronista is reporting that Apple has just filed a complaint with the European Commission regarding Motorola's recent legal actions. The handset-maker won an injunction in Germany last month, resulting in the temporary ban of some of Apple's products.
But Apple has maintained that the patents that Motorola is asserting against it are industry standard, and therefore fall under FRAND jurisdiction. And since Motorola doesn't seem to want to offer Apple a FRAND license, Apple went to the EC...
How many times have you come across an Apple-related rumor that came from an analyst and his "supply chain" sources? Just look at all of the Apple TV gossip — most of it can be traced back to Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster.
While we tend to write off most of their predictions, there are some analysts that actually know what they're talking about. But we don't see them very often, because the ones that do provide accurate information, usually go to jail...
