No Apple Event Scheduled for February
Earlier today, Japanese blog Mac Otakara claimed that Apple will be holding an "unusual" event in February, backtracking somewhat on its earlier claim of an early February iPad 3 event.
The Loop's well-connected Jim Dalrymple now reports that Apple will not hold an event in February, indicating that observers waiting for the iPad 3 or other major announcement from Apple will need to hold out until at least March.
This is not going to happen, according to my sources. Apple will not hold an event in February, unusual or otherwise. That’s it.
Dalrymple has in the past quashed inaccurate rumors regarding Apple media events, and has proven to have reliable information.
