Early Details On 2012’s Redesigned iPad, iPhone

First details revealed about new Apple Lineup



Expect body changes for the next iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Pro. Here’s what we’ve heard

(1) The third-generation iPad will become modestly thicker (0.7mm) in order to accommodate the twin light bar system needed for its higher-resolution display. It’s currently on track for a March timeframe release, and according to our source could be publicly shown as early as January, depending on conditions.

(2) Our source says that the next-generation iPhone will not look like the teardrop-shaped version that was widely rumored for release in 2011. We’ve been told that the device will have a 4-inch display and will be 8mm longer than before, with a metal casing (probably aluminum). It is on track to be introduced in summer of 2012, and is still in the engineering phase, not early production. We suspect that poor battery life doomed the prior prototype version, and that this one is being built with LTE-ready battery drain in mind.

I have had the chance to play with a couple of iPhones, invariably I go "Neat but too expensive for something I am just going to replace in a few years... that and really I just want a phone for phone calls."
