Fortune's Brian Caulfield has been playing a game of espionage at a Quanta Computer distribution centre.
Acting on previous reports that Apple shipped 19 deliveries from Quanta the reporter went about staking out Quanta's distribution facility in Fremont, California. The building although designed for product distribution is reportedly overwhelmed with stock of a mystery Apple product.
The location on Wednesday evening had dozens of tall pallets outside, all reportedly belonging to Apple. Many of them were clearly iMac boxes but around 20 others placed side-by-side were wrapped in unmarked brown packaging.
Caulfield attempted to speak to some Quanta employees but was told that the shipping supervisor was "very busy" while another employee stated that he was "not at liberty" to discuss what the manufacturer was shipping when asked if the pallets contained iPhones.
