Apple to launch Next Gen iPhone in September, 7-inch iPad in August and new MacBook Air in between – Part 2

In other news, the MacBook Air and Pro are anticipated to receive reinforcements in Fall this year. Word on the street is that the company has planning to launch a new $799 MacBook Air to cater to Windows-based ultrabooks that range from $699 to $1200. The release of this thin MacBook Air is expected to fall somewhere in the third quarter as well. Furthermore, the MacBook line is expected to receive an upgrade of wireless technology.

There are telltales that the new line of notebooks from Apple will have built-in 4G LTE antennas and will work on wireless networks from the likes of AT&T and Verizon. So expect these carriers to sell some laptops on contract in addition to smartphones and certain tablets.

The new television set from Apple, that Walter Isaacson quoted Late Steve Jobs telling the world about, is also catching attention from the media. Though many experts are of the opinion that the new television will not surface in the market any time soon—at least this year, it has been tipped for being in the prototype stage already.

There are numerous sources that have stated sights of the prototype of a big 42-inch display in Chinese factories. The television, according to these sources, is a big version of the Apple’s LED-backlit Cinema Display that maxes out at 27 inches. Further, the television will have Siri integration, FaceTime chatting with the built-in camera in the top bezel and AirPlay streaming from other iOS and Mac OS X devices.

Last week Apple launched the iOS upgrade called iOS 5.1.1 with bug fixes that will essentially solve the AirPlay bugs and iCloud synchronization. It will also fix software bugs on iCloud-based apps that have not been launched yet. It will also improve the reliability of HDR option video on lock screen.
