"New iPad includes A6X chip, double the CPU and graphics performance of the A5X. Higher speed Wi-Fi and Lightning connector"


Nice! DOUBLE the CPU and graphics performance...Faster wifi!
 
YOU dish out 1000 bucks Canadian on a piece of hardware and have it obsoleted in under a year and see how that feels. No, it didn't get slower, but this is why I left Android. I thought at least I could get a year out of new stuff.

you can get three years out of it if you want?... i really don't get it.
 
Anyone saddened but not surprised by 1024x768?

I guess price will either add insult to injury or lessen the blow...

I'm predicting the former :D
 
"Why does Apple stick with the yearly update cycle when Android devices are being updated constantly? Apple is being left behind."

"I can't believe Apple updated the iPad after only 7 months. I'M PISSED!"


I really don't understand people.

welcome to earth people are stupid
 
Yeah? How's that?

Does the iPad 3 do any less than it did when you bought it?
What features have been removed from the iPad 3 today?

The only way it's "obsolete" is if you feel the need to have the latest and greatest purely for the sake of having the latest and greatest.

Isn't that the main reason why people upgraded from iPad 2 to iPad 3?
 
Love the iPad mini.

The iMac's are.. I am not sure. The laminated glass and LCD must be cool, but trimming the width, doesn't really matter. In fact I would like some heft rather than a thin wall paper overing over my desk.

Still dual core on the mac mini and 13" Macbook... Hmmm.. Can't blame them there is no space for the i5's or i7's.
 
Wow, phil schillar just flat out lied. The nexus 7's bezel is made out of aluminum not plastic. Also the adress bar disappears on the nexus once it finished loading.
 
ipad mini looks way better than that unknown tablet on the left ;)

If you got on the bus instead of jumping in front of it...:D
 
If you call your congressman fast, you might be able to get them to pass a law that companies can't update their products more than once a year!
 
Why the whining about iPad 3 now obsolete? Of COURSE it is, just like the 1 and 2 were obsolete when the 3 was introduced. Everyone knows only a loser holds on to the LAST generation of an iDevice. Just deal with it, upgrade, and come on here and dance around the misery of those that claim the newest i-Whatever isn't "good enough to upgrade" and claiming "they'll wait." They are LOSERS for owning the last version, don't you realize that? You are the SUPERIOR BEING for owning the most recent version of anything Apple chooses to give us mere mortals.

Rejoice in your ability to now PROVE your SUPERIORITY!

TAKE MY MONEY! MAKE ME WHOLE!






*yes, this is sarcasm for the intellectually challenged, or anyone still owning an iPad 3 come November.
 
Ugh!

FU Apple. I didn't buy the iPad 2 and waited for the new iPad in March. So I ordered it and now I get screwed when an updated model is put out 7 months later? Way to treat customers. I would've been fine with just an iPad Mini as a new product introduced today. But they didn't wait until March 2013 to refresh the iPad - they did it 7 months later. This is going to anger A LOT of Apple customers :mad: ......

I agree with you on this one. Maybe some of these purchases are impulse buys?

You just used the term "obsolete" to describe the older divice, which it isn't. It's really funny how so many people allow new Apple products to upset them.
