New iPad by March 2012?
According to a report by Digitimes, Apple is preparing to launch an upgraded iPad 2 in March 2012, with the iPad 3 to follow in the third quarter of the same year.
The new iPad 2 is rumoured to offer better battery life than the current model, and could also sport a thinner profile.
Apple will also reportedly launch a “real” iPad 3 during the third quarter of 2012.
LCD panel manufacturers including Samsung are said to be working on a new retina display for the next-generation iPad, while a faster A6 processor may also feature.
The decision to launch an upgraded iPad 2 ahead of an iPad 3 could be the result of manufacturing delays that are struggling to mass produce 2,048 x 1,536 resolution displays effectively.
