Ipad 3 Rumours


The iPad 2 hasn't even been formally announced yet, but Silicon Valley is abuzz with rumors of the iPad 3–thanks to Daring Fireball's John Gruber.
on Wednesday, Gruber wrote a short blurb on his blog in response to HP's announcement of the TouchPad (which will reportedly be released this summer):
"Summer feels like a long time away. If my theory is right, they're not only going to be months behind the iPad 2, but if they slip until late summer, they might bump up against the release of the iPad 3. And not only did they announce this with a distant ship date, they did it with no word on pricing."
If you look closely, you'll notice that Gruber has casually dropped the words "iPad" and "3" in that post. Gruber is a rather well-known Apple writer, so this little slip didn't go unnoticed by the tech media. Business Insider immediately jumped on the comment, suggesting that the iPad 3 will indeed arrive by the fall of 2011–just six months after the iPad 2 is expected to arrive.
Gruber later posted an update on Daring Fireball, with detailed speculation on future iPad ship dates:
"So, here's my guess at Apple's iPad plans for 2011:
· an iPad 2, fairly soon. say, a March announcement, shipping in the first week of April. faster, more RAM, maybe more storage, thinner and lighter, a front-facing camera.1 Running iOS 4.3.
 iOS 5, announced at a developer event in March, shipping in June.
· iPad 3, shipping in September, announced at the annual iPod event. Running iOS 5.1, same as the next-generation iPod Touch."
Gruber believes that an annual September release date makes a lot more sense for the iPad, than does a January or April release date. also, he's skeptical of the rumor that the new iPad generations will have both a front-facing and a rear-facing camera

Ipad 2 Accesories

Zagg have done it again and released what we are excited to say is the seasons MUST HAVE iPad accessory: The  ZAGGmate iPad case with keyboard . It’s not often that we get entirely blown away by an accessory for the iPad, but this one has left us shell shocked and in awe. The perfect compliment to your iPad, this is the first iPad keyboard case combo that we have seen yet that has done it right. In fact, it’s the best bluetooth keyboard we’ve seen to date as well! It’s so right and so perfect that we already wonder how we ever used our iPad without it! Check out the review below… ZAGGmate with Keyboard The iPad’s New Best Friend Our first impression of the ZAGGmate was: “Where’s the rest of it?” This iPad case is unlike anything else we’ve seen on the market to date and the designers at Zagg worked hard to literally rethink what an iPad case could be. This is an iPad case that doesn’t cover the whole iPad, but rather just covers the iPad’s screen, and leaves the back of the tablet...

Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review

Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review Skyfire for the iPad made headlines when it was first released, due to its ability to play Flash videos on a device previously void of this popular technology. Users flocked to the App Store, eager to drop five bucks for the chance to view their favorite clips, shows, and movies on their iPad. Not only did the browser play these videos, but the integrated video compression saved a significant amount of bandwidth for people on a restricted data plan. The initial excitement wore off quickly, though, as complaints were rampant about many sites not playing videos as expected. Since its inception Skyfire has certainly improved in this area, now claiming support for over 200,000 websites containing Flash. The dissenters will always be there as not every Flash video on the Web will be playable, even if the developers at Skype Labs remain diligent. Some of the backlash is warranted to a certain extent. If I paid $4.99 with the intent of viewi...
