Yesterday the Japanese website Macotakara claimed that Apple would hold an iPad 3 media event in February with product launch in March. But today Loopinsight reported that Apple will not hold an event in February, indicating that observers waiting for the iPad 3 or other major announcement from Apple will need to hold out until at least March.

This is not going to happen, according to my sources. Apple will not hold an event in February, unusual or otherwise. That’s it.
