Apple cracks down on accessory makers to discourage leaks:


Click Here for the article's website.

  • In the Apple rumor cycle, accessory makers "borrow' blueprints of the models to create add-ons for the products
  • Apple made key accessory producers sign agreements preventing them from getting design details unless from Apple itself
  • Apple makes "penalties" for producers that leak the given information
  • A lot of the accessory makers who jump the gun are small outfits that never had a chance of reaching Apple shops
  • Official schematics do not show up until a given announcement, so you may end up waiting weeks while major third parties scramble to develop new add-ons and accessories
