Subject:       Request for confidentiality regarding application for Class II Permissive Change for
               FCC ID: BCGA1470

To whom it may concern:

Pursuant to Sections 0.457 and 0.459 of the Commission’s rules (47 CRF §§ 0.457, 0.459), Apple Inc.
hereby requests the Commission to withhold the following attachment as confidential document from
public disclosure indefinitely:

       •   Technical Description

Although Apple has begun to market the device publicly, this document reveals technical and design
information that has not been publicly disclosed in such marketing and that is protected by Apple as
confidential and proprietary trade secrets. This information has been disclosed to those required to
maintain its confidentiality, and is not customarily disclosed publicly prior to the release of new
features.

As a result, disclosure of this information by the Commission would harm Apple by giving
competitors an unfair advantage even after the commercial release of the device.

In addition to the above mentioned documents, pursuant to Public Notice DA 04-1705 of the
Commission’s policy, in order to comply with the marketing regulations in 47 CFR §2.803 and the
importation rules in 47 CFR §2.1204, while ensuring that business sensitive information remains
confidential until the actual marketing of newly authorized devices, Apple Inc. requests that the
Commission withholds the following documents from public viewing for one hundred eighty days
after the date the approval for the Class II Permissive Change is issued:

       •   Test Setup Photographs

These documents reveal technical and design information that has not been publicly disclosed in
marketing materials and is protected by Apple Inc. as confidential and proprietary trade secrets. This
information has been disclosed to those required to maintain its confidentiality, and is not customarily
disclosed publicly prior to the commercial release of the device. As a result, disclosure of this
information by the Commission prior to commercial release would harm Apple Inc. by giving
competitors an unfair market advantage. Apple Inc. believes the period of confidentiality requested is
necessary to protect the information until the commercial release of a device.


Sincerely,


Tiberiu Muresan
