Does this mean anything? Like this being an "s" model of sorts where the iPad 5 will be a bigger jump in specs and design next year?
 
That's the model number nothing more. The iPhone 4S is the 4,1, the iPhone 5 is the 5,1 and the 5s is the 6,1.
 
That's the ipad3 wifi model. From the IPSW naming, the ipad4's are 3,4 for wifi; 3,5 for gsm; 3,6 for cdma. ipad3's were 3,1 through 3,3
Interesting... Wonder why each gen doesn't have the same respective number to go with it.

Generally they seem to, perhaps there wasn't enough internal (from a firmware perspective) difference between ipad3 & ipad4 to justify full model number change to whomever decides such things? *shrug*
