iOS 4 Code

A block of code in iOS 4 hints that some ‘unreleased hardware’ might have been rest run, and it could be iPad 2 and CDMA iPhone 4 or may be iPhone 5. This block of code is basically intended to perform the iPhone and iPad activation process after iOS is installed over it. Code highlights the exemption that may have been given to next generation iPhone or iPad so that those could be test run. So, the rumors of CDMA iPhone 4 or 7 inch iPad 2 in first quarter of 2011 might have some weight.

Here is the report from DigiTimes:

Apple is set launch an upgraded 9.7-inch iPad adopting a new ARM Cortex-A9-based processor and 512MB RAM in the first quarter of 2011. Meanwhile, the company will also launch a 7-inch iPad using the Cortex-A9 processor and an IPS panel with a resolution of 1024×768, according to Digitimes Research senior analyst Mingchi Kuo.

As for the CDMA iPhone, Pegatron Technology is expected to start mass production in December and will supply to both US-based Verizon Wireless and China-based China Telecom. The CDMA iPhone’s back plate will be forged from metal materials and will feature an integrated antenna, according to Digitimes Research.

Verizon is expected to announce the product at CES 2011 and will start shipping in January 2011. The sales ratio of GSM and CDMA iPhones in 2011 is expected to reach 65:35, Digitimes Research out.

In addition, Apple is also set to launch a new Apple TV using AMD’s Fusion solution and will not include a hard drive.

Mass production of the device will start in December, Digitimes Research noted.
