Ars wurde im iPhone OS 3.0 fündig. Neben einem neuen iPod und zwei neuen iPhones soll es von Apple zwei weitere mysteriöse Devices geben die iPhone OS 3.0 nutzen: iProd und iFPGA.

What have we here? It was only a matter of time (and it almost seems like Apple is leaking this on purpose at this point), but Ars found some extra little bits of code in the 3.0 OS that indicate that there will be not one but two new iPhones, a new iPod touch and two mysterious new products that will run this OS called "iProd" and "iFPGA".
We don't know about you but, we've wanted the iProd since forever and will be buying 4 of them the second they are released.
Smith suggests that the iFPGA could be a prototype device that uses field-programmable gate arrays, a type of programmable microchip.
The "iProd," on the other hand, uses a 0,1 number, suggesting it is a prototype of an as-yet unreleased device that is neither an iPhone nor an iPod touch.
How far along any of these products might be in the development cycle isn't known, but it's clear that support for them is in iPhone OS 3.0. Of course, what the mystery iProd could be is anybody's guess—iPhone nano, tablet Mac, or just some very early test hardware for a future iPhone are all some of the theories our Magic 8-Ball has come up with. Still, the existence of these model numbers suggests Apple isn't just resting on its laurels with respect to its mobile device hardware.
