Apple Issues Invitations for iPad 3 Media Event on March 7
In line with expectations, The Loop reports that Apple today sent out invitations for a media event scheduled for next week Wednesday, March 7. The event will be held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco and is scheduled to begin at 10:00 AM Pacific / 1:00 PM Eastern. The tagline on the invitation reads "We have something you really have to see. And touch."
Apple is of course expected to introduce the iPad 3 at the event, with an upgraded Apple TV set-top box also reportedly
in the plans. Rumors have also suggested that Apple could show off a
new high-definition audio format with "adaptive streaming" that could allow Apple's iCloud and iTunes Match services to send varying qualities of audio files to different devices depending on bandwidth and hardware requirements.
