More reliable sources say no Apple event scheduled for February
"This is not going to happen, according to my sources," wrote the Loop's Jim Dalrymple. "Apple will not hold an event in February, unusual or otherwise. Thatâs it."
Dalrymple was responding to claims published earlier in the day by the Japanese Apple blog Macotakara stating that Apple would hold a "strange" event in February ahead of a special event to launch the third-generation iPad in early March.
Over the last couple of years, Dalrymple has accurately debunked a number of rumors (1, 2, 3) pertaining to when Apple plans to hold its events and what they'll reveal.

Old saying in the press business "one piece of information = one news" ; "declaring the previous piece of information as false = another news" !
So it wasn't to be 'strange' news only 'unusual' now? That's news of a sort!
I'm selling my iPad today. Could wait, but I hardly use it anymore. I need a retina display to make me imagine it's useful again. Until then, MBA like always.
Ugh, I'm jonesing. I've got the money and am just waiting on a refresh to buy an iMac. Am the only one to be disappointed because of my expectation for an announcement about the iMac? Answer: probably.
