God willing, and wife permiting... I will be one of the first in line for this since my 2 1/2 year old son took the old one over...
 
iPad 4

Yay! Now lets start the rumors for iPad 4...since we already did iPad 3.

I've heard it will be a Triple Core with an anti-aliased half retina resolution.

Half retina? That would be a step back to the iPad 2 days. The iPad 4 will have a double retina display. I am already working on a new iPad 4 case design that includes a fresnel lens protective covering so that you can actually see text on the device. Plus, it has a regenerative touch screen that generates power from the user swiping their fingers across the screen, thus making battery life unlimited.

Unless you are using flash.
 
I'll bet the case manufacturers are excited.

I think I spent more on cases than the iPad itself.

I Know.......:rolleyes:
 
gotta love apple and the way they market their products in that they make minor adjustments to the specs usually 1 year out of 2 when they could easily put on the iPad 2 now a retina display, a5 chip, more RAM.But chose not to.

By the way, the iPad is soo god damn slow. Compared the to the blackberry play book the speed of which pages load is like night and day.

Here we go again: time to plan for an iWaiting event! If the speculation is true, the invitations will be sent by Friday (Feb. 25). Lets say 3 weeks until the product is released (around the weekend of Sat. March 26).

While there are newsbits about reduced iPad price rates in some European markets, I suspect that in cace iPad-2 is introduced on March 2ed, for the following few weeks the demand for iPad-1 will drop - in fact Apple might strain the supply to build up the demand for the 2ed generation iPad(s).
 
just been looking at the quidco cashback store to see latest offers and came across this

The expiry date for the offer is Tues 8th March. Reckon either release of new ipads or announcement will be on this day rather than March 2nd?

Perhaps a FaceTime call between the host and Jobs?

Perhaps. However, I don't know if apple want the picture that the camera will make. The front camera on the iPhone is has a super short focal length and it's very unflattering to a thin face.

That's what I imagined when jobs first took his medical leave about a month ago

Why complain here if you can enjoy your blackberry playbook?

Because it's not out in case you didn't know. I only know the disparity in speed between the two devices because I saw it with my own eyes on YouTube. Marketing campaign by blackberry. Worth a look.

Sigh.....I think he was poking fun at the fact you are comparing an almost 1 year old products performance, to that of one that is not even yet released. :rolleyes:

True, but even then what makes you soo sure the next iPad will have a cortex a9 chip which would make it have similar speeds to that of the play book? :eek:
 
Will this iPad be running iOS 5, or a new iOS 4.4 or something?
Please don't make it so the iPad doesn't get iOS 5 until 5 months after the iPhone. Last time was ridiculous...

LOL! And you know this how? I didn't know the Playbook was even available yet? :eek:

Of course Apple is holding out... 10 inch retina displays are everywhere and the cost is almost nothing. They just love to hold out and sell us last years tech.

Ohhhh boy.:rolleyes:
