 Send to email | How to time purchasing something from Apple in Techie stuff |  By Trey Martindale
el 12-Aug-2008 | Every now and then a friend or colleague will ask my advice about what computer-related equipment to buy. Increasingly their requests have involved Apple products like the Macintosh, iPod, and/or the iPhone.
Apple is a company known for secrecy, and yet Apple does exhibit some general patterns in terms of when they release new products. And it can be disappointing to buy something from Apple, and then have the company release an update or new product soon after your purchase.
So, in the spirit of successful shopping, here are two very helpful sites I use that track Apple products and historic release schedules to give you an idea of when new products are near release.
