Taking its reputation for pushing out new versions of old products faster than anybody can actually keep up with to bold new extremes, it looks like Apple<\/a> is planning to launch both the iPad 3<\/a> and iPad 4 this year.<\/p>\n

According to a report on DigiTimes, an unnamed components manufacturer in Taiwan has claimed the iPad 3 features an 1,536 x 2,048 px QXGA display and improved battery life, but “other hardware specifications may not be so amazing as expected”.<\/p>\n

The device is allegedly shipping out in March, alongside an iPad 2 price-cut from $579 to $399, before being made obsolete by the iPad 4’s “much upgraded hardware specifications” and “killer applications” in October.<\/p>\n

No word yet on the iPhone 5, 6, and 7, but we can probably expect those sometime between lunch and afternoon tea.<\/p>\n

This is obviously all unconfirmed rumour for the moment but honestly, it just doesn’t seem that hard to believe. I guess I’d better enjoy my iPad 2 while it’s still cool.<\/p>\n

MyBroadband’s Jan Vermeulen – well-respected expert on everything tech – purses his lips, arches his eyebrows and shakes his head.<\/p>\n

I think that means “not likely”.<\/p>\n
