Apple's shares trade well above $500, but Apple's CEO Tim Cook still sees the need to tell analysts that Apple will release some products this year that blow minds.

Tim Cook made this remarks at the Apple annual shareholder meeting, according to Forbes. The statement of course leaves a lot of room for interpretation. What is known so far is that Apple will release the iPad 3 and the iPhone 5 in 2012 as well as revamped MacBook Pros. A mind blowing product would though be something completely new, like the rumored Apple Television.

Apple is evidently going to have a stellar 2012 with new products everybody wants to have.

2012 is also big for Microsoft with the Windows 8 release. It will be an exciting year with lots of new cool hardware for Apple and Windows fans, i4u reports.
