Launched several hours ahead of schedule in the United States, the entire third season of Orange is the New Black is now available to watch on Netflix’s streaming service. Originally scheduled to launch on Friday at midnight, Netflix announced the launch of the popular drama on Twitter. The tweet reads “Attention inmates! Orange Is the New Black season 3 is out on early release. #OrangeCon.” Cast member Uzo Aduba also chimed in on Twitter with a tweet that read “The entire season @OITNB is live on @netflix right. NOW. Enjoy! #OITNB #OrangeCon #321GO.”

This early launch coincides with the OrangeCon event currently ongoing in New York City. That event, by invitation only, includes panels that host cast members such as Taylor Schilling, Laura Prepon, Natasha Lyonne, Lea Delaria and Uzo Aduba. Besides panel discussions, fans at that event were able to watch the first episode of the season as well as get autographs from the cast members.

Of course, this isn’t the first Netflix-exclusive series to premiere this month. Just a week ago, science fiction drama Sense8 launched on Netflix’s streaming service. Next month, Netflix will launch an original comedy series from Chris Tucker as well as the second season of animated series BoJack Horseman and the Wet Hot American Summer series.

It’s also possible that Marvel’s Jessica Jones will make an appearance on Netflix before the end of the year. Due to the rampant popularity of the Daredevil reboot on Netflix, it’s likely that the remaining Netflix shows planned by Marvel will receive high priority. Of course, those shows also have to fall in line with existing story lines in Marvel’s overall cinematic universe.

New iPhone SE and iPad Pro with 3D sensing tipped for early 2020 release
iPad Pro 2018

The Mac recently got some love in the form of the new 16-inch MacBook Pro— and the iPhone SE and iPad Pro may be next. According to a new report from Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-known Apple analyst, the next iPad Pro iteration will be released in the first half of 2020, alongside a new version of the iPhone SE. The news was first reported by MacRumors.

The new iPad Pro is expected to offer a number of upgrades over the current-generation model. Notably, the device will likely have a rear camera capable of 3D sensing, which will work through a time-of-flight camera sensor, which can measure the time it takes for light to bounce off of objects, then generating a 3D map of an environment.
