The curtains are just about ready to open and unveil  a new Apple device to the masses. The rumor mills have been churning out plenty of iPad 3 seasoned gossip for the fanboys  to chew on. Now those rumors are just about ready to be laid to rest as Apple has sent out invitations to a select tech oriented audience to attend a press event in San Fransisco.

The press event will be held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco. Mashable made an interesting note to point out that in recent history, when Apple usually plans on unveiling a new product, they choose a location on the west coast. Most notably at either the Apple campus or the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Now all I want to know is what on earth does Apple want us to touch so badly? (Yes I know, poor formulation choice of a sentence.)

I guess we’ll find out when Apple unveils what it hints to be the iPad 3 on March 7. The event is to start at 10 AM PST (1 PM EST).

So what do you think will become of this event? Will Apple actually show off the iPad 3 or will they pull something new out of their bag of tricks?

Oh and we’ll be live blogging the happenings at the event so keep it here!
