Apple preparing a 7inch iPad?

~ Matthew Jagiela ~ 2 Comments

Every year sense we saw the iPad there has been crazy rumors of Apple making a 7 inch iPad so much Steve himself said the company would never make one! There is still rumors of them happening and here is the newest one: A 7inch iPad 3. Yes. Just like the 7 inch iPad 2 there is now a 7 inch iPad 3 rumor. There has never been a reason for Apple to even consider making an iPad that is 7 inches… Until now. The kindle fire Amazons “best selling product ever launched” is the 7 inches and has some steam going because it is allowed to be sold for such a low price because it’s smaller. So this is one reason they could be going for it. A very low budget iPad for people who just need something that small. We have herd of Apple ordering 7 inch iPad screens. However I don’t think we will see this. At least this year. I think this year they are going to test it. To see if they actually wanna put it out there. Above and right below is the 7 inch iPad 2 render vs the iPad 2 10 inch image.

So what do you think? 7 inch or not?

Sense the iPhone 4 has come out the next question for the world was when would the iPhone gain LTE 4G support. Many thought that the iPhone 5 that was going to be the first LTE device but then the iPhone 4S came around and that dream was squashed. You could say though that the iPhone 4S is “4G” on AT&T HSPA+ network but that’s not true 4G. Now the rumor is that the iPad 3 is going to be the first iOS 4G LTE device.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is said to have met with NTT DoCoMo president Kiyoyuki Tsujimura and VP Takashi Yamada earlier this month to work out the details of the arrangement, and the companies have reportedly reached agreeable terms.

the quote above is meant for the 4G release of an iPad or iPhone. However this doesn’t say anything about the release dates at all. However if the iPad 3 is going to be the first 4G iOS device we see than will we see at a usual time this year in January? Or will we have to wait till later for apple to make sure the 4G works. Or could we see what they did with the first iPad release the wifi only and keep making and testing the cellular one? We will find out soon!

iOS 5.1 beta was released last night and while I can’t see any differences but some Apps not working, but deep inside the code there are some references to some new iOS devices. This includes the new iPad 3, iPhone 5, and the next generation of the Apple TV. The new iPad is supposed to be launched around March but the way things are working this year have been a little odd so we will see.
