While earlier reports pointed to March 15 as the big date, Re/Code claims that Apple plans to hold the event in the week beginning March 21. The publication isn't offering a firm date, however, it is strongly hinting that March 21 could be the day. A number of other outlets are also independently putting their money on March 21.
