In a recently aired broadcast on CNBC, Jim Goldman reported that a source close to Apple’s manufacturing facilities has confirmed that the company will release a sub-notebook at Macworld in January and will also have a 3G iPhone on sale by June.
Goldman also reported that the iPod touch is selling better than expected, with one of Apple’s manufacturers set to release 5.1 million units over the holiday season.
On the ultra-portable Mac Goldman noted that it would be 50-percent thinner that the current MacBook Pro, will employ NAND flash memory over a traditional hard drive and will most certainly arrive at Macworld 2008 in January. The ultra-portable is expected to come in at $1500.
Finally Goldman said that contrary to some reports that the 3G iPhone will arrive in late-2008, his sources suggest that the device will be on shelves in late-May or early-June at the latest.
