Apple on February 23, sent an invitation to media inviting them to a special event on March 2 in San Francisco, CA.
Speculation of an Apple event first broke yesterday in a day that was filled with rumors that the iPad 2 would be delayed until June.
Two separate reports said the iPad 2 and iPhone 5 would be delayed, but these rumors were false.
While specs of the iPad 2 are a tightly guarded secret, it is widely thought the device will feature a front-facing camera with FaceTime video support and be thinner than its predecessor.
