Apple Cinema Display Updates?

AppleInsider claims that "reliable" sources have indicated that Apple will be introducing a new 30" High Definition display in November, featuring a new aluminum based display casing. The 17" LCD is said to be discontiuned at that time.

Meanwhile, ThinkSecret posted an unconfirmed report earlier today that suggests that Apple LCD case revisions are not expected, and will merely see updated internal components.

The 30" Apple LCD rumor first appeared on our 2002 Rumor Reject list. Two rumor items (iTunes Music Store and Keynote) have since come true from that list. The 30" LCD rumor was later revived in March 2003 with an unconfirmed resolution from the now-defunct MacWhispers.com.

Both ThinkSecret and Appleinsider also hint at iBook and eMac revisions later this year.

The boxier ratio happens to be very close to the classic "full-frame" IMAX 1.43:1 aspect ratio, which comes from the geometry of the company's original 15-perforation/70mm film system. In response to an X post from someone wondering if we'll see...
