Apple Readying MacBookMini or iPhone Lite?
Techtree News Staff, Apr 29, 2009 1132 hrs ISTRumor mills mull over new Apple products
Apple's iPhone OS 3.0 code carried details about Apple's upcoming products. Two different reports indicate that white-fruit themed toy maker is working on two separate products. According to the recent buzz, Verizon is in talks with Apple for striking the iPhone deal. Now, two folks 'familiar with the matter' revealed that Apple would be rolling out two devices with Verizon.
We have always known that rumors and Apple go hand in hand. BusinessWorld recently reported that both Apple and Verizon are in talks to release a new 'iPhone lite' and a tablet like device which is due this summer, supposedly with the final release of iPhone 3.0 final version. Very few details have been revealed about the cheaper, smaller 'iPhone Lite'. These rumours remind us about those which were out in mid-January about the iPhone Nano.
However, the other device, dubbed as 'mediapad' has quite interesting features. Users would be able to listen to music, watch HD videos and view photos. Users can even make VoIP calls over WiFi on the Mediapad. This Mediapad is likely to be the unknown iProd device which will be like Amazon Kindle and have hardware version N18AP as previously discovered from iPhone OS 3.0 code.
Also, The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) got tipped about Apple's possible next major device MacBookMini through Adium Statistics link. A TUAW reader passed on an Adium Stats link that had information about MacBook Mini. Adium client is iChat alternative for the Mac OS X platform.
It is noted by TUAW that earlier, MacBook Air was showed up in Adium Stats on the site.
Nevertheless, the feedback from the developers and respective product cycles indicate the introduction of new products from Apple. For that matter, all eyes would be eager for the WWDC 2009 that starts on June 8.
