Invite to Apple's March 7th event |
As we told you, Apple has sent out invitations for an event on March 7th to announce the Apple iPad 3. The new tablet is allegedly coming to market with a Retina display panel that has a pixel density of 264ppi (yes, it is under the 300ppi cap for Retina display as laid out by the late Steve Jobs. But some leeway is given for a tablet since it is viewed from more of a distance than a smartphone is). Other upgrades to watch for next week include the improved camera, faster processor and possible LTE connectivity. Other speculation centers on an Apple iPad 3 with a smaller 7 inch display to be released at a different event later in 2012, in order to challenge the lower priced Android tablets.

I just coined 'Apple Fatigue'! Tired of all the hype only to be disappointed!
I'll wait and see what they have to deliver!

Personally ... I think this is a smart move.
1. A lower price to entice those on the fence because they can only afford a Fire ... but really want an iPad.
2. With all of this "cloud" stuff ... the need for a "ga-zillion" GB local storage is not really needed so much. You just swap in/out via the "cloud" what you want/need and call it good.

watch the apple only add an 8mp camera and add better processor to the ipad 3 nothing else changes. And people go nuts and wait in line for it

It'll have SIRI.
I have heard that the reason the iPhone 4 and iPad 2 do not have SIRI is because a new voice recognition chip was put in the 4S. Putting SIRI on the iPhone 4 would produce too many false responses. (At least this is the excuse Apple is giving us.)
I would think Apple would have put that in the iPad3/2S (whatever they call it).

Sounds like Apple is about to play us all for fools again and try to sell you a 8GB IPad 3 for $499 so they can justify selling the 16GB version for more than the previous year's 16GB IPad 2.
