“iProd” reference in preferences file suggests new Apple device coming soon

Other | Doug | August 4, 2009 at 5:49 pm

ArsTechnica has posted a screenshot of the USBConfiguration.plist file for the most recent iPhone 3.1 beta 3 release. As you can see in the screenshot below, there is a key that says “iProd0,1” and “iProd1,1“. This key suggests that Apple may be releasing a new Apple device soon.

Earlier on in the iPhone 3.1 beta firmware releases the iProd0,1 reference was found. Apple uses the “0,1” in products when they’re in the prototype stage. With the recent 3.1 beta release, the iProd string has been updated to “1,1” which means the device may be released soon.

Last month there were rumors of an iPod Touch with a camera. We think “iProd” is the iPod Touch third Generation and it may be released as early as September.

iPod Touch 3rd Generation?

    I really hate people that call that a “3g” that’s a network connection. Just as the 1st gen iPhone is not a “2g” it’s edge– if you want to call it by it’s network. I want to strangle myself.

    2G, first gen….who cares. You know what they mean. Some hate the iPod touch being called an itouch too. IRS not a bug deal to me.

    What I don’t like though is this damn phone putting out words I don’t want it to. I wanted it to say it’s not a big deL, not IRS .
