Will iPad 3 arrive this September?

Wednesday, February 9, 2011

Though iPad 2 is not released yet, but there are rumors that Apple is planning to release iPad 3 by September!

This rumor started when John Gruber said that the new HP tablet may run up against the third generation iPad

If my theory is right, they're not only going to be months behind the iPad2, but if they slip until late summer, they might bump up against the release of iPad 3.

However, Gurber continues by saying that his comment was just a guess..

Thus, my gut feeling is that Apple will move the iPad to a September release schedule, alongside the iPods. But they wouldn’t want to wait over a year and a half from the announcement of the original iPad to announce the second one — not with these stakes, and not with so many serious competitors trying their best to catch up.

But this guess was mentioned again by TechCrunch!

We’ve now heard that this “fall surprise” is related to this would-be iPad 3. We don’t have any more concrete information beyond that. But, as of right now, the plan is apparently to release one iteration of the iPad in the next few weeks. And then blow the doors open with another new version in the fall.

EVEN Verizon iPhone 4 has Antenna Issues!! (Video)

We wondered earlier, in the differences between AT&T and Verizon, whether the Verizon iPhone will be having an Antenna problem!!!

Well, iLounge has discovered that it does suffer form the same antenna problem found in the iPhone 4 launched in June 2010.

Though the antenna was redesigned, but that didn't solve the antenna-gate issue!

When the Verizon iPhone was held in landscape orientation with two hands the problem with Wi-Fi reception appeared, this was referred to as Death Hug!

So the Death Hug in iPhone will affect both Wi-Fi and cellular signals.

So in order to fix this issue, again we should use a protective case.

Check the Video below!

Chrysler running over an iPad!! (Video)

One of the most dramatic examples of how Apple products can withstand abuse is THIS!!!!

A Chrysler PT Cruiser has passed over an iPad by the the front and rear wheels!
The following Video shows how the iPad only problem is just THE GLASS!

Other than this, the Home button is still working and all other components in the display are functioning normally. Even the accelerometer responded by rotating the screen.

You don't have to pass over your iPad to check this test!

Enjoy the Video!

It will have a front-facing camera for the first time for features like video-conferencing, but the resolution of the new iPad's display will be similar to the first iPad, they said"
