The new app is said to feature a silver play button sporting Twitter’s blue bird logo, and could be available to users as soon as the end of the month.

New iPad Patent

It is the middle of March and we still have not heard any rumors of a special event held by Apple. No tech writers have received vague invitations to the California Theater. Frankly, I’m getting antsy.
