Apple’s been taking delivery of some extremely large shipments recently, and they don’t conform to its usual product descriptions. Speculation is rife that the new products it’s taking delivery of are the 3G iPhone.
According to ImportGenius, Apple’s taken delivery of 188 containers from China, each one containing up to 40,000 devices. In customs documents, the new shipments are described as “Electric computers,” a label never previously seen on Apple deliveries.
What does it mean? Apple’s just taken a massive delivery of a new product, that’s for sure. We’d put money on it being the 3G iPhone, fresh from the company’s Chinese manufacturers, since it’s small enough to fit 40,000 into a single container.
And since having un-sold stock lying around warehouses is never a smart business move, we’d expect Steve Jobs’ keynote is now primed for the introduction of the next-gen handset.
