Yesterday Apple sent out invitations for a March 9th unveiling in San Francisco. By the looks of the invitation, I (along with everyone else) are assuming this is the unveiling of the iPad 3.
Yesterday Apple sent out invitations for a March 9th unveiling in San Francisco. By the looks of the invitation, I (along with everyone else) are assuming this is the unveiling of the iPad 3.
Here is a list of some of the best iPad 3 rumors out there:
Speed of Light
Bloomberg reported that the next-generation iPad will be faster by running on a quad-core chip. It is also said to feature a high-definition screen and be compatible with long-term evolution (LTE), a wireless network that allows users to access data more quickly.
iPad 3 Educational Material
It has been reported that there are iPad 3 reading material and how-to resources out there. According to GameZone, Amazon added two iPad 3 books to its European site — both in French and German. According to this same report, the iPad 3 for Dummies is scheduled to be published on March 29.
Siri, Your Personal Assistant
According to 9to5Mac, Apple is adding Siri Dictation to the iPad 3. While looking through the iOS 5.1 beta 3 settings application on the iPad it was noted a new section called “Privacy and Dictation,” which included legal and feature information for Siri.
Looks Makeover
iLounge recently reported that it saw the prototype of the next-generation iPad at the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). It looked just like the iPad 2, only thicker by about 1 mm. The camera in the top left corner is expected to be similar to the camera on the iPhone 4S.
There's even a change of an edge-to-edge retina display that allows multiple iPads to interact together, like this concept:
Lighter Price Tag
There have many suggestions that the next-gen iPad will not include the hefty price tag that we are familiar seeing with the pervious iPads. This would be in an effort to compete with the Kindles and Android tablets.
Bottom line is though, the next gen model going must be monumentally different than the iPad 2. Fanboys and girls were upset enough for the unveiling of an iPhone 4s rather than the 5 (Siri isn't that impressive). Is there a chance we might just be seeing the iPad 4s and not a total revamp at all?
