Va mai amintiti ce va spuneam eu aici in legatura cu zvonurile privind amanrea iPhone 5? Ei bine, iata ca publicatia Wall Street Journal prezinta parerea unul analist american care exprima aceeasi indoiala in legatura cu amanarea acestui terminal si pune aceste zvonuri in seama altor interese. Conform informatiilor publicate de ei, Apple ar fi mai mult interesata sa mentina ridicat interesul clientilor pentru achizitionarea terminalului iPhone 4 pana in ziua prezentarii de la WWDC 2011. Cei de la Wall Street Journal catalogheaza informatiile ca fiind “suspicioase” si ma bucur sa vad ca nu sunt singurul care gandeste asa.
iPad 2 Ramps and Apple Keeping iPhone 5 Cards Close to the Vest. The success of the iPad 2 launch is clear given the continued serial stock-outs, and one of our contacts believes iPad unit sales could reach up to 40 million in CY11. Regarding the iPhone, we are increasingly becoming suspicious around continued reports of a delayed iPhone 5 launch into September/October versus the typical June/July time frame. Although we do not have a smoking gun that definitively rules out a delayed autumn unveiling or one that supports a launch this summer, there is a pattern of activity in motion within the supply chain that makes us question a delayed launch. Essentially, we believe Apple is keeping its iPhone 5 cards extra close to the vest on this launch to avoid a falloff in iPhone 4 demand ahead of a refresh, especially given the February launch of the CDMA iPhone 4 with Verizon.
E normal ca Apple sa tina totul secret avand in vedere cele intamplate anul trecut cu Gizmodo si vietnamezii. Apple intentioneaz sa vanda cat mai multe terminale iPhone 4 iar zvonuri privind lansarea iPhone 5 in vara ar “speria” posibilii clienti care s-ar gandi de 2 ori inainte sa faca achizitia pana la lansarea oficiala a iPhone 5. In concluzie eu raman la parerea ca totul e doar fum in ochi si iPhone 5 + iOS 5 vor fi disponibile, ca de obicei, in luna iunie/iulie 2011.
