As the iPad 3 is rumored to have a dual-core processor for faster and better performance, Apple could come up with an A6 processor if time permits, says Waleg.com, a website reporting on Arabic and US pop culture news.
Otherwise, the iPad 3 will end up with the same processor as the iPad 2's A5, the website predicts.
Various rumors say the iPad 3 may include a retina display, according to the website. Their were specualtions that this mysterious display might be a feature of the iPad2, though this was not the case.
It has long been rumored that the iPad 3 will have a 3D display, according to various reports. "The fact that the iPad 3 is 3D is a dead cert," a "Hollywood insider" reportedly told RCR Wireless news.
The source also alleged that "the big film studios [are] currently running around like blue-arsed flies trying to gear up to release plenty of 3D content in time for Apple's next launch."
The iPad 3 will feature a brighter and higher resolution Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode AMOLED display screen, said Taipei-based DigiTimes.
The iPad 3 is slated for a release in fall, possibly September, according to Waleg.com.
However, the Taipei-based DigiTimes debunked the rumors, saying that releasing another iPad so soon "would simply bite off share from the iPad 2."
According to the DigiTimes, Apple is still in the "initial planning stage" with the iPad 3.
Apple has reported a decline in iPad sales in its most recent quarterly earnings call, down to 4.69 million from 7.33 million, said Computerworld, an IT news provider.
