iWatch
The iWatch is a fabled product that Apple buffs have been
hinting about for several years. The idea of a wearable piece of technology
that can help your fitness routine, provide music, and allow you to check your
email without ever causing you to lose track of time, is a tempting thought at
the least. Now, there could be evidence that Apple truly is developing such a
product.
According to a report by DigiTimes, Apple has tapped the
services of Taiwan based Quanta computers to develop the iWatch and production
pilots are already underway. The device has been pushed back from the first
quarter of next year to the second according to the report because of low
yields. Foxconn has also been invited into the project, but the split between
the two companies is as of now undetermined.
Jumbo iPad
Quanta will also be responsible for building Apple’s new iPad,
which is rumored to have a 12.9 inch screen.
According to the report, the company expects supplies of the larger
scaled tablet to be limited due to the fact that components for a tablet of
this size are not currently available in the mainstream market. This means
there could be a supply constraint until the idea of larger tablets catches on
with component manufacturers. The new larger iPad will most likely be used in
the education and business fields, rather than for personal home use.
