Sources who are in the media reported MacosXrumors that Apple has sent invitations to the press for a special event that will take place on May 18th on the 767th Fifth avenue at 59th Street in Manathan, New York.
The invitation's slogan is "Think inside the box" and it states:
Please join us at a press preview for the launch of the Apple Store, Fifth Avenue at 10:00 a.m. on May 18, 2006. Registration begins at 9:30 a.m.
Here is a picture of the invitation.
Apple is expected to unveil its next generation iBook next week. The entry-level laptop will probably be called "MacBook" and will be powered by an Intel CPU. Recent unconfirmed reports also suggest the release of a red flavored iPod along with the new MacBook.
However, the event is officially dedicated to the opening of the new flagship store location on the 5th avenue. The invitation doesn't state anything about new product releases though. So we can expect the release of the MacBook and maybe other products anytime next week.
