Some tech insiders seem to think that Apple will release a first version of the newest iPad during the spring months like normal. Some feel it will be called the iPad 2S. These people then thing the “true iPad 3” will be released later in the year – perhaps in the late summer or earlier fall months.
There is some evidence to support the case for two different iPad models. A little while back Digitimes reported that the iPad 3 was headed into production and was headed for a March release. However, things point to a slightly upgraded iPad 2, instead of a brand-new, unique, iPad 3.
Apple doesn’t seem to be too terribly worried about rushing another model out onto the market and rightfully so. Apple still has a large market share of the tablet market and has steadily held it since the release of the original iPad.
However, with that being said, Apple knows it is in their best interests to release another revolutionary version of the iPad. Therefore, it is reasonable to say that Apple will indeed be releasing two new versions of the iPad in the coming year.
