Rumors back iPad 3 in March, add sketchy 'iPad 4' in October

Claims of the iPad 3 shipping in March were braced on Friday by a rumor that included uncertain claims of a second 2012 follow-up. Apple's tablet would arrive in two months with its rumored 2048x1536 display, Digitimes' anonymous sources said. They also echoed beliefs that Apple would cut the iPad 2 down to $399 to squeeze out other companies who had discounted their own tablets, though in their case due to poor sales....

I don't believe it either. I mean two new ipad models in a year? I don't think so either. Wishful thinking.

I think that would be a loser product - don't really see the need. I can see a slightly larger iPhone filling that gap just fine - just MO only.

I have a hard time believing that one as well. Has Apple ever released 2 new products of the same type before? I can't remember any dual releases of the same product in one year but I might have missed one :)

Yeah I can't see any 7 inch ipads. Steve used to breath fire when talked about!

We had the two-ipads-being-released-in-a-year rumour last year too remember. We were supposed to have had the ipad 3 last October...

Seems like that ipad4 rumour in October could also be BS imo....
