Banners Begin Going Up at Yerba Buena for iPad 3 Media Event

Remember?

Unusual colour scheme for an iPad launch. I Might be wrong, but didn;t Apple usually reserve these colourful banners for an iPod announcement? I sincerely hope I'm wrong on this. Credit card is burning a hole in my wallet.;)

For those who forgot, it was for their FIRST iPad launch :)

Yeah. I remember. And I also remember the "analysis" of said artwork. It was "very clear" that it was "Verizon Red," "AT&T Orange," "T-Mobile Pink," and "Sprint Yellow." People then wrote off the green, blue, grey, and purple as "must be other, regional, carriers."

But the concensus was certain: addition of more carriers for iPhone.

Because there's nothing in an Apple ad by accident. ;)
 
I was just out for an hour fetching my fiancée from a concert (it's pretty late here on the other side of the pond), now I am back...well, watching the poster guys...uhm, take a break?

Amazing!

well as you can see with the white in both corners and the texture, its purely a "swipe" so that means gestures, so no "home button"

:rolleyes:
 
I'd like to see these cool new features as much as the next person, however rumours have a tendency to get carried away (but I suppose that is why its a rumour).

From years of experience of getting excited for a launch and then being slightly let down upon announcement I have a feeling that Apple are going to play it safe with the iPad 3 just as they did with the iPhone 4S. Remember when everyone thought the iPhone 4S was going to have NFC or when the iPad 2 was going to have a retina display?

Personally I expect to see a retina display, Siri and more storage. I'd be surprised if there was much more than that.

Saying that though, the "Touch" part of the slogan has got me stumped...
 
Cool... Looks kind of like a combination of the "color splash" original iPad launch graphic and the later-era silhouette iPod style.

Oh yeah, had a look inside, too: No banners of any kind there, yet. I guess they won't put up those until next week.
