It’s rumored that Apple may release the Fifth-gen
iPad, second-gen iPad mini
in March according to Brian White of Topeka Capital Markets. He said his checks
with industry sources at this week's CES event in Las Vegas, indicated both the
fifth-generation
iPad and second-generation iPad mini will debut this March, just five
months after the last update was announced.
White was told that the new "iPad
5" will be lighter and thinner than the fourth-generation model Apple
released late last year. The updated model features a new A6X processor and
Apple's smaller Lightning chip but maintained the same design as the
third-generation iPad released last March. As for the iPad mini, White said the
second-generation device is expected to have the same form factor. A new model
would likely just have upgraded components, such as a faster chip.
However, Apple does not have an official
presence at the annual event. White did not indicate the source of his
information aside from unnamed "checks" at the show. White also
reported last week that Apple is expected to debut new iPhones this summer in
more sizes and colors, expanding the lineup from the current black and white
options. He expects the new iPhones to debut in the May-June timeframe, which
would be earlier than the last two years.
