“The city of New York will play a ‘key’ role in the Apple’s unveiling of its third-generation iPad next week, a device expected to pack a quad-core processor and 4G LTE connectivity, financial news network CNBC claimed on Tuesday,” Neil Hughes reports for AppleInsider.
“In a live report Tuesday morning, the network cited anonymous sources who indicated an event will be held in New York to announce the third-generation iPad,” Hughes reports “Those same people reportedly indicated Apple’s next tablet, which it said will have a quad-core CPU, will go on sale on March 9.”
Hughes reports, “However, Jim Dalrymple of The Loop immediately took to Twitter to declare CNBC ‘wrong.’ Dalrymple has a proven track record with respect to Apple’s plans. CNBC’s Jon Fortt later took to the air to clarify that he has heard that New York City will be a “key location” in next week’s anticipated iPad event.”

MacDailyNews Take: As a general rule: When it comes to Apple, listen to Dalrymple.

Why would Apple change its history of important product announcements and go to NYC? Just so Tim Cook can take a cross-country trip? I’m sure he would not be pleased with having to trek cross-country twice (there and back), missing important time in Apple HQ, just to announce a new iPad which could just as easily be done in San Francisco, Cupertino, etc.
I guess CNBC, being located in NYC, is just like most other New Yorkers: they put far to much importance on themselves.
If you say so Sigmond
CA is where it’s at.
CNBC fails. It’s in California. As usual, the MDN take is spot-on.
I agree, NYC is not the center of the universe. Sadly, no one has told them that and their vanity-generated reality distortion field prevents any facts from entering an 80 mile radius without being twisted beyond all recognition. I have hated every visit there.
Apple is sending out invitations to the event — it is not in New York (SURPRISE!). It says the event will take place at 10:00 am on Wednesday, March 7, 2012 at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco.
New Yorkers like to think the world revolves around them when it’s only thieving Wall Street that is of any consequence.
Yeah, yeah, yeah . . . everyone with more money, education, intelligence, skills, and social position than I (have) is evil and going straight to Hell. The same old, same old, same old rant. Don’t look now, pap, but your envy is showing.
And exactly how is living in a dump like NYC make one smarter, wealthier, more intelligent , more skilled or “higher” in class?
I’m sure the homeless guy in the Bronx has a Columbia PhD, a Barclays International Account, is in Mensa, plays Guitar like Django, and screws society chicks every night.
Actually that homeless guy does all that. And he shares blow with A-Rod.
Deadbeats in New York have it all over even the kingpins in any other metropolis. Bow down.
Fail!
Jim “The Beard” is great.
CNBC = Crap and Nothing But Crap
CNBC- Conservative NutBall Channel.
Of course they have lost Beaker and others to Faux Out-of-Business Channel with it’s 15 viewers.
Maybe the New York reference relates to Education for iPad.
