At 8:30 a.m. ET, the Apple Store shuts down, usually a sure sign that new products are on the way. In addition, a somewhat cryptic tweet shared by Tim Cook used the phrase “the possibilities are endless” and the hashtag “TakeNote” that displays the colorful Apple logo when used. The tweet accompanies a colorful animated image of a person repeatedly pressing the screen to zoom in with their rainbow doodles. It features the song “Go On” by Panda Bear & Sonic Boom, which includes the phrase “Something’s Comin” around the turn, something buried in the script. “

There are conflicting rumors about how dramatic the redesign will be – you might lose the home button entirely – and Gorman says only that the new model will be “the most important update to this line in several years”. A Twitter user discovered a new case for the iPad 2022 at Target that says the new tablet will support the second generation Apple Pencil.
