The good news is it will come in March according to reliable sources and this buzz is already creating a frenzy on what the iPad 3’s specs will be. It might hit the shops earlier though because Apple might be launching the product on Steve Jobs’s birthday which is on February 24^th. Many are praying that this will come true in a way because lots of people would like to get their hands on the new iPad. Whichever the case, it will arrive soon and no sooner than March and this is something we can all rely on.

One hundred percent accuracy is of course not possible when it comes to discussions like these so all we could provide is information from different sources and more often than not, contradictory. Do not fret though because one of these rumors are bound to come true anyway, it is all just a matter of time.

Pulse taking is a good way to get relevant information and one of the more sure things one can provide fans is that the A6 processor news might be true. However, if this does not come true, one thing is for sure, the iPad 3 will be quite powerful. No one knows how much the iPad 3 will cost but one only has to base it on how much the iPad 2 costs when it was launched.

With the Mayans saying that the world will end on December 21, 2012, those who are anticipating the end of the world will probably not buy an iPhone 5. However, those who are more hopeful are looking forward to the smartphone and will probably keep that phone until the next release of the Cupertino company i.e. the release of the iPhone 6.

Many are anticipating the arrival of the iPhone 5 and lots of Apple fans are now asking how much the iPhone 5 will be. To be very honest, no one knows yet how much the smartphone will be at least not until Apple announces something or any of the carriers in the US announce something about the device. There’s not even enough information on its exact release date what more how much it will be sold? Alright, let’s not dwell on that, let’s focus on what we’d get once the iPhone 5 is here.

First off, rumor has it that the iPhone 5 will sport a curved glass design much like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Apple detractors say that this is just so unoriginal of Apple but we must take into consideration that one must integrate the good things about other products to make a better product. It has been circulated allover the blogosphere months ago that the California company bought equipment for glass cutting to make sure that it will be able to sustain its inventory when Apple fans hit the stores for the new iPhone.

Another wonderful news is circulating the web and this is the iPhone 5 being faster and better than the first 5. According to sources, the iPhone 5 will be using the processor used for the iPad 2. Apart from this, the new smartphone said to be released on October 2012 will also be sim-less.

It seems that the Chinese won’t take abuse from the Cupertino company especially when they waited all night in below freezing temperatures just to get their hands on the iPhone 4S. Even if the iPhone 5 will be released soon, Asia is still very much excited about the 4S. No one knows if Apple’s popularity in China will decrease because of the incident. As crowds began gathering in Beijing Apple stores the night before the release of the said device, police had to be deployed to these areas to make sure that no untoward incidents happen. However, even if the police were there, the “egging” was still done. The Sanlitun store located in Beijing failed to open as promised making the already very tired Apple fans angry.

One man interviewed by Reuters said that he has been waiting outside since the afternoon the day before only to hear that the store will not open and of course won’t sell any Apple products. The man, a yuppie in his 20s, added that this broke many people’s hearts. According to Apple, the store at Sanlitun did not open because of the large crowd outside. In their statement, Apple added that they were concerned for the safety of their employees and the safety of the people outside.

What really is annoying according to Apple fans in Beijing is that Apple will stop the sale of iPhones in Shanghai and Beijing for the time being but Chinese customers can still buy the smartphone online or at China Unicom. Other stores in Beijing opened though and did not experience a problem. One might say that Sanlitun is an isolated case but this news has made it to international news channels making Apple-haters hate Apple more.

Apart from being a worldphone which is a wonderful feature especially for those who travel a lot, the smartphone will also sport a range of other improvements.It will of course have the iOS 5.0 –a sign that Apple is not only aiming for hardware upgrades but software upgrades as well. The highly anticipated smartphone will come with an improved notification system, will be armed by a news stand and of course, iMessage.

Sources say that the iMessage addition is for the iPhone 5 to be able to compete with Blackberry Messenger. The said app will also allow iPod Touch and iPad users to talk to one another. This would be much like a free messenger service for Apple users. So aside from it being a wordlphone, users will be able to chat with friends and family for free without much fuss because it will be integrated into the phones SMS and MMS application. This is truly exciting especially now that the release of the new iPhone is near.

Another wonderful news for Apple fans is that the iPhone 5 will probably sport a 3D camera as well since Apple has been filing several patent applications that involves 3D capturing technology. Reports say that Apple has been doing this since March this year. This is an indication, according to these reports, that the device will be able to capture, process, and render images in 3D through the use of a dual camera hardware.

It is also interesting to note that the new iPhone to be released in early 2012 will have the capability of taking photos in Panorama much like the 360 Panorama in the App Store.

Aside from the iPhone 5’s camera, it will also feature a larger screen. This isn’t new if you compare the iPhones to the androids from Samsung but this is definitely a plus for the iPhone series.
Other rumored features include 4G and LTE support, face recognition security, an OLED screen, a sleeker body design rumored to have curved glass like that of the Nexus, extended battery life, scratch proof screen and a shatter proof one as well, flash support and a physical keyboard. According to those privy to the iPhone maker, the iPhone 5 will be a sim-less phone. That being said, the new iPhone will be a world phone because its sim will not be connected to just one country.

GoPro cameras from Woodman Labs are not that expensive but many iPhone 4 owners are buying them because it turns the smartphone into a very reliable substitute for a POV camera. Adventure seekers will love this piece of news because GoPro might already have this in stock. It was noted in early October of 2011 that Woodman Labs is working on ways on how to turn your iPhone into a POV camera. The action case as people from the lab call it is a shockproof case that makes it possible for the iPhone 4 to be mounted through GoPro.

GoPro offers the world’s most versatile cameras. These cameras are waterproof, shockproof and are of course great for adventures. The brand offers professional cameras, the most well-known of which is the HD Hero.

According to the blogosphere, the action case has built in shock pads to protect your iPhone 4S. The material is a polycarbonate plastic but it is not waterproof according to makers Bajza and Ozawa. The two said in an interview however that they are working on a fully submersible case for the iPhone 4. This is very good development especially for a smartphone that is deemed to be quite fragile and this means that GoPro is going the extra mile to make the case a good buy for iPhone 4S users.

Analysts say however that this is a bad time for GoPro to be selling such an accessory because of the imminent release of the iPhone 5 next year. Many are hopeful though that this piece of product is a good thing for the millions of iPhone 4S users allover the globe because they no longer have to buy a separate camera for their adventures. If you would like to get a professional helmet camera however, the GoPro HD Hero camera is a good choice.

Don’t tell the kids this but have you noticed that your iPhone can fit right into your toaster slot? This is of course not advisable but it does fit nicely in there because of the size and the shape of the infamous smartphone. For those who have always wanted to try and see if their iPhones fit like a pop tart inside the toaster, you can finally get an iPhone dock that looks like one. The TOAST! Speaker dock from Gavio looks like your usual shiny metal toaster but it is actually a docking system for your smartphone i.e. your iPhone for that matter. You won’t be able to toast pop tarts or bread here though so leave that task to your original toaster. The dock also has a built-in Li-Ion battery making it possible for you to not plug in the system at all.

If you are fond of iPhone accessories and furniture that looks like an iPhone or something that looks like a product from the Cupertino-based technology giant, you might want to take a look at the iTable. We are sorry to inform you though that this table is not made by Apple but was rather designed and made by Kyle Buckner Designs. This also serves as a giant docking system for your iPhone and of course functions as a table too.Looking like a stack of giant iPhone 4S’s, the iTable got a smooth, black surface as well as rails that look like the sides of the famous smartphone. And since this is an electronic device, the table has cupholders too to make sure that the owners do not put sweaty cups on top of the table.

Completely handcrafted, the iTable offers high fidelity sound and touch-sensitive controls. If you want to see a video of the iTable you may take a look at it here. We do not know how much this costs though but since it is handcrafted, we think it probably costs a lot.

It has been reported that IP Applications sold the name to Apple to the tune of $55, 000. Although this did not pose as a problem before, it might pose as a problem next year when the Cupertino-based company launches the third generation tablet PC –the iPad 3 among other products that the company is rumored to bring to the market. It will be a problem in the coming years too.

While publications are busying themselves with reports on when the iPad 3 will come out and what its features will be, the development offshore is likely causing distress at the Apple headquarters.

According to the verdict of the Shenzhen Municipal Intermediate People’s Court in China, Proview is the company that can legally use the trademark in the Asian country. A possible solution is for Apple to think of a new name for its tablet PC range if it still wants to take advantage of the Chinese market. Regarding taking advantage of that market, Apple will definitely do something just to sell the third generation iPad in the said country, analysts say. Profit after all is the bottom line. With this news, Apple might be coming up with a new name for the tablet PC right about now and might even market it as a limited edition type of gadget because it is under a different name. Whatever happens though, Apple loyalists will find a way to buy the iPad 3.

Rumors on when the iPad 3 will be ready for consumers have been circulating allover the web keeping Apple fans excited. Although the rumors are undeniably a PR stunt from Apple, it is also undeniable that many people from the world over would like to know when they will finally get their hands on the new iPad. Reports say that some of the spare parts for the iPad 3 have already been delivered to Apple while the touch modules are set to be delivered by December. There is no official word from Apple just yet but reliable sources now know that the iPad 3 will be launched early 2012.

Fans of the iPad are relieved that there will not be an iPad 2S. Analysts say that if Apple releases a 2S, it will definitely cause quite a stir and the company would have to deal with a number of disgruntled would-be buyers. According to sources, Apple got millions of displays from Samsung, LG and Sharp along with a few other parts from different companies. LG reportedly got a $1.1 billion deal with Apple for the shipments this month and the next few months.

The production line for the new iPad will probably start on January but will go on full-scale a month later. It is safe to say that consumers might be able to see, touch and smell (or taste even) the iPad 3 by March of 2012. Now that word is out on when the iPad 3 is expected to be in the market, many fans are now contemplating not to buy the iPad 2 and just wait for Apple’s newest iPad. One has to remember though that these reports have not yet been confirmed by the technology giant and may not even reach the market by March next year.

Amazon’s Kindle however was just released and the tablet PC has now made its way into the hands of tablet fans. Whatever your opinion is regarding these tablets, Robert Cernansky in his article “Amazon Kindle Fire Vs Apple iPad Vs Android – A Tablet Choice for Everyone” said that Amazon’s Kindle Fire is a, “real threat to the sovereignty of the iPad.” This may be true but this bout will be decided by consumers. With so many Apple fanatics abound, it is difficult to say whether which tablet will win this year’s round. One however has to establish which tablet PC works best and which one will work best for you.

If you go to the Barnes & Noble store, you will find that the bookstore is selling Nook Simple Touch which according to CNT in June that it is the best e-ink reader. Nook Color on the other hand was dubbed by msnbc.com as the “best value in the tablet world” i.e. during its heyday. Barnes & Noble’s newest Nook is making quite a buzz in the World Wide Web. A wonderful device for HD entertainment, the Nook tablet sold at $249 is definitely a good buy. Amazon’s Kindle Fire on the other hand is putting up quite a fight. Since it is relatively more popular than the Nook Tablet, it might get more sales, analysts say. However, it is still too early to tell but many wonder what consumer reports say about the newest tablets in town. And another question is, is whether iPad will be sailing through this as smoothly as Apple expects.
