Apple "annual cycle" screwed?

So now Apple have broken their usual "yearly update" cycle with the mid-cycle ipad4 and the 13inch MBP, when will the next round of 15 inch MBP with RD be released? I was assuming it would be June next year, and was hanging on to see what improvements they've made on the new model, ironed out and probs etc, but now what's going on?

    Your 'New' impress you mates Apple product now needs replacing every six months rather than every twelve, simples!
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
  • As usual, this becomes a "apple bashing" post. Though its none of your beeswax, I don't have a MBP, thinking of getting one and wanted to know when the next update is now likely to be. By all means have a rant, somewhere else please. Anyone with anything more helpful?
  • Have a look on mac rumors.

    Edited: Plus do you really think the largest company in the States (based on capital value) gives a flying duck for the end-user , especially if said end user is in the American Colonies

    I believe that aside from the iPhone which will still get a summer release, Apple will release items closer to christmas for items such as ipads, Apple TV's, ipods and such, and will release MacBooks & iMacs shortly after Intel has enough chips to satisfy Apple demand, which would probably be March / April each year, baring any production issues with Apple's other suppliers.
