昨晚下班後,AllThingsD新發表的一篇文章《Apple's Next Event to Be Held on October 4, Starring Its New CEO》指出Apple的新任執行長(CEO)Tim Cook將在10月4日週二(即台灣時間10月5日)發表iPhone 5。
While Apple could certainly change its plans anytime, sources said that the Oct. 4 date has been selected by the company to showcase the iPhone 5. Sources added that the plan is now to make the new device available for purchase within a few weeks after the announcement.
這篇文章很快被各大小媒體引用,到今天早上似乎儼然已成定案。
不過,截至目前為止,所有源自AllThingsD的消息與轉述都沒有得到Apple官方的正面回應。
老實說,如果我是Apple的員工,特別是負責行銷公關方面的人,應該是很樂於見到這種熱絡揣測的盛況,而且,最好就是都不要回應媒體的詢問,讓他們繼續補風捉影兩個禮拜。
