“Based on source code from the AirPods page of Apple’s website in Australia, MacRumors has uncovered what appears to be a new image of the AirPower with an iPhone XS and the new AirPods wireless charging case on it, providing yet more evidence that Apple still plans to release the wireless charging mat at some point,” Joe Rossignol reports for MacRumors.
“Apple updated its AirPods page yesterday after unveiling a second-generation pair, and this image was intended to showcase the new optional wireless charging case on a Qi-enabled charging mat, but Apple never ended up featuring the image publicly,” Rossignol reports. “We found it hidden within a CSS stylesheet.”
Rossignol reports, “While the AirPower might still be coming after all, a specific release date remains unclear.”

MacDailyNews Take: Here’s one Apple product we’d steer clear of pre-ordering as the inordinate amount of time between its announcement and launch — September 12, 2017 and, so far, The Twelfth of Never – creates more than a twinge of concern. We’ll wait for the hands-on reviews for this one, thanks.

I thought for sure AirPower and the iTouch would finish out the week with Thursday / Friday announcements. Well, there’s always tomorrow. I think the H1 chip is a good sign for future in/on/over-ear phones. I imagine the H2 chip design is finalized already. As for the new Mac Pro, I’m guessing we’ll have to wait until June to hear/ see it and fall for ordering/ shipping. Time will tell.
Lol. The pro will be anounced at the end of the year and won’t ship until 2nd quarter 2020. Hopefully I’m wrong.
