Analysts see iPod speakers, iPhone in Apple’s future
Following a meeting with Apple executives at company headquarters in Cupertino, California, analysts from UBS Investment Research believe Apple could introduce several new products in the coming year, including iPod speakers and an Apple-branded cell phone.
“We also believe that Apple may choose to enter new consumer markets for iPod speakers and Apple branded cell-phones over the next year where the company would be able to leverage its market leading innovations and creative designs that have made the iPod such a tremendous hit with customers,” the firm said. “In addition, we anticipate that Apple will continue to announce new partnerships with content providers and build on the media it currently has available for download.”
