iPad 4 due out this year after iPad 3

iPad-4-October

Apple’s iPad 3 is due out this March and news has now landed on our desks that the iPad 4 will be out this year as soon as October. The next thing on our desks was our jaws.

The downside of this news – leaked to Digitimes from an Apple component manufacturer – is that the iPad 3 will be yet another incremental improvement from Apple.

The idea is to make a better iPad 2 with improved screen and battery, but at a lower price – to compete with tablets from Google, Samsung and Motorola Mobility priced around US$360, and the US$200 Kindle Fire.

With rumours of a 7in iPad 3 – just like the Fire – this leak seems pretty solid.

If you've been holding out for a true next-gen iPad, the good news is that the iPad 4 is expected as soon as this October, and it will be a big leap forward (at last) – with never-before-seen technology and vastly improved specs.

So if you were holding out for the iPad 3, it might be worth waiting just a little bit longer for a potentially six-core iPad 4.

omg... I've read some c**p in my life, but this takes the cake.... shouldn't there be the word rumour in the title.
and how about a little personal insight on behalf of whoever wrote this article; like about the rumour of a HD ipad 3 that was supposed to be coming out last September.
some apple hating troll came up with this to try and put a dampener on what is easily gonna be the biggest gadget in 2012.
