14 DAY TRIAL // A Hong Kong-based seller of iDevice accessories has begun sales of various cases for the upcoming (yet unconfirmed) fifth-generation iPad. Apple is expected to debut this device later in the year.
Alibaba.com is no stranger to the technical specifications of Apple’s next-generation iPad, it seems. The company has kicked off sales of protective cases / sleeves destined for the iPad 5, even before the device is confirmed.
Apple is known to supply accessory makers with the dimensions of its upcoming iPads and iPod touch players, in order to launch its next iDevice in a sea of add-ons.
This time is no different, it appears. Moreover, this so-called leak may be indicative of the actual launch date of the new iPad 5. Analysts have mixed theories on this topic, and Alibaba may have just confirmed that the tablet is just around the corner.
