So...if Apple has the posibilty of upgradeing iPad and doesn't they are a cash consuming non-consumer oriented corporation who want to eat our children and sell more of each generation of ipads, but if they make the upgrade when they can so that consumers get the latest in what they have to offer it is still wrong because they hadn't thaught of the ones that baught an iPad 3.
P.S. - i believe steve would have introduced an iPad mini too.

It's slightly different in aspect that Samsung manufactures nearly all of its phones. It makes sense that Samsung wants to use its manufacturing edge by producing and selling as many phones as possible.
Apple, not quite. Only reason I can see why they are doing this is to disrupt other tablet's selling cycle and dominate the tablet market.
TL;DR Samsung:"We have the foundry, we have the design and technology, why not make more of it."
Apple:"We should protect our share in the market."
The fact is, whilst it is true Samsung pretty much make several phones with same spec, they are all priced similarly or lower. Apple is doing something similar, yet they expect you to pay the full+new generation price. Eg, Galaxy Note 2 which is an upgrade of Galaxy S 3 is 599, Galaxy S 3 initial release price of 799. See the difference? Another example would be Chrome book 2, which actually has better SoC than the 4th Gen iPad only 249 dollars.
I seriously doubt whatever they are doing to the new iPad it would justify a grand price tag.
Yes I am pissed as an ipad 3 user but I do want them to destroy Microsoft and there surface! Go Apple!
next year they're gonna use A7X chipset, paint it black, and use avenged sevenfold ringtones..lol
I just don't get the point of releasing 6 months later having had Samsung 10.1 tab iPad 2 and and 3 and hanging out for windows surface I dont see why apple need a faster processes than the one in the iPad 3 it doesn't make much difference when the os is light as it is. users will feel a little difference but seriously guys this is a joke releases a tablet with os lion so wecan use it as a computer that would of been my next move if I was apple disapointing from a company so large
Sucks that the 4th generation iPad has twice the processor power as the 3rd generation iPad with the release dates about 7 months apart.
AnonD-46560, 23 Oct 2012Have just bought ipad 3 one month ago.. :( :( now they're launching this?? wtf!!I agree it is not fair to launch a updated new version so soon and that too at the same price. They should have at least made it more expensive. Anybody would be skeptical in buying a new apple product now. I expect a new iPad mini with retina display and A6 chip soon!
AnonD-46560, 23 Oct 2012Have just bought ipad 3 one month ago.. :( :( now they're launching this?? wtf!!Oh well, you better buy it then since it's a new one.
If Samsung can release 12 phones in one year, Apple can release 2 tablets in a year.
If Samsung can release 4 different versions of 1 tablet and give it a different name then so can apple.
Awesome move apple, right before Christmas, none of their competitors expect this!. LOL Microsoft shitting in their pants right now, hahahahahahaahaha
so the ipad 2 is going to be $399, ipad 4 $499, so would the iPad 3 be $449?
lol
AnonD-46560, 23 Oct 2012Have just bought ipad 3 one month ago.. :( :( now they're launching this?? wtf!!thank God you dint buy an android tab.. they will upgrade evry month.. and Apple jus want to port lightening connector in the ipad.. So nothing new.. Enjoy ur ipad...

Just bought ipad 3 20 days ago wtf
AnonD-52369, 23 Oct 2012Unbelievable!!! Did Apple really need to organize an event for such announcement???!!ehrm, I think this is like the most apple products announced ever in a single event...
[deleted post]Not really. I just bought a brand new Galaxy Tab 7.7 for $500. If I can afford a $500 Galaxy Tab, I can certainly afford a $320 iPad mini...
Apple and rt marketing promoters have not heard of AMD APU hondo tablets.DRX with many fps,new and old proffesional windows software,10 mm thiness,lighweight,low power consuming,and LOW price as it should be.No way any of those things could do all those,and they all matter
AnonD-46560, 23 Oct 2012Have just bought ipad 3 one month ago.. :( :( now they're launching this?? wtf!!i feel for you dude. it is not fair to update a product just 6 months after its release.
Anonymous, 23 Oct 2012Unfortunately, not really. Steve Job is the essence of the company and many Apple fans now are... moreAbsolutely true.i hope they sell the mini cos m not in da market because m waitin for No5. Don't knw why it is takin apple so long to realize da market needs a 13" retina ultra/laptop or any other manufacture
Art, 23 Oct 2012No thanks, I'll go with Surface Pay 500$ and stuck in windows RT! ha ha ha..
