We are just a few weeks away from the strongly-rumored iPad 3 event and, as suspected, the number of reports and “leaks” is increasing quite rapidly. Today, we received news of an iPad 3 parts and components leak which, if correct, reveal interesting information about the hotly anticipated device. Details after the jump!
Although rumors and tip-offs about new devices don't necessarily tell us much, a sure-sign that we are about to see a new product - particularly in the case of Apple - is when supplies of said device's would-be predecessor become somewhat scarce.
We're very much in the middle of the iPad 3 rush right now, with rumors, photos and all other kinds of things cropping up over the last few days. All the evidence points towards an iPad 3 announcement in the coming weeks, and the latest rumor corroborates just that.
If you're the kind of person that thrives on Apple product rumors then over the coming weeks you're going to be in for one hell of a treat. If you're the kind of person who's blood begins to boil at the very mention of parts suppliers and Japanese blogs, then you should probably look away right about, now.
Profiles are in the process of being pushed through to numerous mobile carriers selling Apple's iPhone appear to suggest the rather delayed release for iOS 5.1 could finally be happening on 9th March.
The third addition to Apple's market-leading tablet series is, according to speculation, not too far away, with Chinese manufacturers Foxconn and Pegatron said to be working around the clock to produce the numbers in time for a purported March release.
It is fast approaching that time of year again where we start anticipating the launch of the next generation iPad device. March 2011 saw consumers once again going crazy for the iPad 2, queuing up outside stores in an attempt to get their hands on the year’s must-have gadget.
Case manufacturers have a somewhat hazy past when it comes to predicting what upcoming Apple devices are going to look like. We had the iPhone 5 cases which promised a teardrop design for example, and we all know that didn't come to fruition.
Each and every time Apple releases a new beta of a version of iOS, some clever people go snooping to see what they can find hidden inside. The latest beta to come out of Cupertino, iOS 5.1 beta 3 is no different, and this time two new iPad references have shown up, again.
With iPad 3 set to be announced any time in the next few months; the rumors and counter-rumors are beginning to gather pace. Just recently there were reports that Sharp was to be the producer of panels for the new, high-resolution displays, but that now seems unlikely.
