Here are the latest Apple-related rumors from the blog-o-sphere:
“Apple is planning a new push into Indonesian sales, says NZWeek. Indonesia’s Investment Coordinating Board has officially approved an Apple application to enter the country. The board’s deputy chairman adds that the company is planning to invest between $2 million and $3 million to launch a retail store in the capital of Jakarta; the store would be Apple’s first in the country, and in fact Apple’s first in the Asia-Pacific region outside of China or Japan.” — “MacNN” (www.macnn.com)
“Digitimes has now published a new report backtracking on its earlier claim and indicating that Apple only plans to launch two new 4-inch iPhone models in 2013, presumably the iPhone 5S and some form of a new iPhone 5, perhaps revamped into a cheaper form factor based around a plastic shell. A larger iPhone is reportedly still in the works, but will not be seeing a launch this year.” — “MacRumors” (www.macrumors.com)
“The latest iPhone activation data from Verizon suggests Apple may have shipped more than 50 million iPhones during the 2012 holiday season.” — “AppleInsider” (www.appleinsider.com)
