Will there be an iPad3 event invite tomorrow ?

If we all believe in the rumors going around for the launch of Apple’s most awaited iPad3, then tomorrow should be the big day. Let me explain why?

Last year Apple send the invite to the press (exactly one week before the launch) on Feb 23rd to launch the iPad2 on March 2nd.  Now both Feb 23rd and March 2nd were Wednesdays and we all know that Apple loves Tuesdays and Wednesdays to launch their new product. Now according to the rumors, Apple this year should launch the iPad3 in the 1st week of March. Going by that calculation and my intuitions, Apple will launch the iPad3 on 7th March (Wednesday).

Why March 7th? Today is 28th Feb, so by now Apple should have send the invite (one week gap between invite and launch theory i.e if they are planning to launch the iPad3 on 6th March (Tuesday)), but there is no news of the invites yet.  If 7th March (Wednesday) is the date set by Apple to release the iPad3 then the members of the press should receive their invites tomorrow i.e 29th Feb (i.e exactly one week before the launch). Apple sure should take the advantage of tomorrow i.e 29th Feb to send the invite, as this date is special as we all know that we all will be seeing the next 29th Feb not before 2016.

We will see what happens tomorrow, but going by my theory mentioned above I am having this feeling that the invites will be coming tomorrow. We’ll see.


Update: My intuitions were correct (Apple is launching the new iPad on 7th March) but my invite date was wrong. I don't have to prove it to anybody but it seems I was composing the post mentioned above and at the same time Apple sends out their invite to the media.
