Major new iPad (the NEW new iPad), A6X!

Annoying, but the cpu and gpu finally have enough horsepower to power the screen. Feels like that terrible first gen 13" uni body mb, utterly superceded, but this time in record time. I don't mind so much, I'll be selling mine anyway, I want a mini, even if it is only 1024x768.
 
Got the iPad 3 three months ago (to the day) as a graduation present. I wasn't planning on upgrading until 2014 anyway so I'm not as annoyed as those of you who upgrade with each new generation. But still, I thought I'd have the latest for 8/9 months. Combining this with the problems I've had with my iPhone 5 I'm not exactly loving Apple right now.
 
The iPad 3's LTE doesn't work with my country's network and the iPad 4 does.

I feel cheated.

I don't care about the new A6x, the new camera or whatsoever. I subscribed a LTE plan because of iPhone 5 and yet I can't use it on my iPad.

That's why I don't buy anything until, well, ever. Too much potential for buyer's remorse. :rolleyes:

It's not like your 3rd Gen units are all of a sudden crappier. It's that they keep working on stuff and making it better. Didn't he say "we're not going to take our foot off the gas"?

You had to figure the iPhone 5 and iPod lightning connector introduction was gonna push forward feature upgrades on the other stuff. They want to get you to buy connectors, plugs and adapters for everything!

use the iPhone as a hot spot. Im pissed about this fast upgrade though.
 
I brought a 16GB WIFI and smart cover 6 days ago from an Apple Store UK.
Can I return them for a refund once the new ipad come out and get the new one instead?
 
Man, am I glad I returned my iPad 3 and got the Nexus 7 instead! I'd have been PISSED with them updating it to the iPad 4 this fast.

I feel for those of you that are out of your return window. That's just crappy of Apple to do.
 
So glad I didn't upgrade to the 3rd generation from the iPad 2 since I was waiting on the HD front facing camera and the lightning connector. Will be upgrading to the 4th Generation iPad without a doubt now.

Kind of a slap in the face though in a way for the people who upgraded earlier in the year. This was pretty significant update.

Yes, you have 14 days to return the product, but they will charge you a restocking fee (those filthy thieves!).

Hahahahaha. Its actually funny.

Hey, Im still on the iPad 1, so dont complain about having a great iPad 3.

Im gonna buy either the 4th generation iPad or the Mini (but it has A5, which is old).

A6 on the new iPad is surely gonna be awesome.

Im REALLY glad I decided to wait for a 4th generation iPad. I expected it to be in February, since the iPad 3 was not good enough for me. Waiting is rewarded.

Truly 4th Gen?!?!

Very happy about this. From day one iPad 3rd gen has always been a little too slow due the the sheer number of pixels being pushed. In some scenarios SLOWER than iPad 2. Finally a chip that can do the display justice.
