Apple Computer will announce new products at the end of February, according to an invitation sent to reporters. The event will take place Tuesday at 1 p.m. Eastern at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, Calif. The cryptic invitation simply asks recipients to join the company to view "some fun new products from Apple," without elaborating on what those products might be.

Sam Bhavnani, principal analyst for mobile electronics and computing at research firm Current Analysis, thinks Apple will unveil a redesign of the iBook line, with a view to making the products available for the back-to-school selling season.

This is a good one for the suffering news forum, it is confirmed valid announcement from official sources. People that check news regularly, instead of Area 51 (which indicates something apart from rumours) would not know to hold off purchases, or which purchases (there are strong indications already) until new items are announced on the 28th.


Thanks
