Meanwhile, beside rife news about iPad 5 release date, Apple is currently making the headlines these days, as it is now regarded as the as the most valuable brand in the world, according to a post from NY Times, citing a report from Interbrand that is scheduled to be released on Monday. Interbrand is a "corporate identity and brand consulting company owned by the Omnicom Group that has been compiling what it calls the Best Global Brands report since 2000."

The 2013 Interbrand report reads, "Every so often, a company changes our lives, not just with its products, but with its ethos. This is why, following Coca-Cola's 13-year run at the top of Best Global Brands, Interbrand has a new No. 1 - Apple."
