Updated iPads To Be Released At Apple Event With Lightning Connectors And Improved Internals

Tom Richardson October 20, 2012 5

We all know that next week, tuesday the 23rd to be exact, is expected to mark the announcement of Apple’s brand new iPad Mini. However a new rumour that was first reported by 9to5Mac has surfaced, proposing that Apple will also be updating their current 9.7″ iPads at that event. The iPads they will announce will be similar to the current versions, but will include Apple’s new lightining ports – as well as have some updated internals. This will essentially be a ‘tweaked’ model of the current iteration of full size iPads, still including such features as it’s beautiful retina display.

As 9to5Mac reports, the up to date full size iPads will most likely retain the same price points, all the way from $499, to $829 for 4G LTE & 64GB of capacity. So, with all this wealth of Apple goodness coming on the 23rd, are you excited? What is the product you feel will make you want to whip out your credit card? You can of course be sure that we will be providing you with coverage as it’s happening on the 23rd so you miss none of Apple’s shenanigans.

    I wonder what that will do to the resale price of my iPad 3 with the old 30 pin dock connector? I just bought it when they released it a few months ago and now an update? I will not be happy if they do release a new iPad this soon after the last release.

    if im still under warranty and apple care, will they replace mine and give me a new one? i was one of the first to go out and buy the new ipad 3.

    i dont think itd be fair if they penalized us for being such good fans of their products

    Dont I wish they would but Im not holding my breath. I bought my iPad 3 the day they came out and Apple is pulling this crap a few months later. It would be all good if they would swap me for a new one but I dont expect they will unfortunately
