iPad 2 after Verizon's iPhone 4 release? That's... so red.Fans of Apple inc. can expect iPad 2 in April next year according to an analyst. Meanwhile, iOS 4.2 has some surprises for iPad users?
A Wall Street analyst revealed that fans of Steve Jobs and co. can expect a second-generation iPad next year. According to CW, quoting Brian Marshall of Gleacher & Co., April 2011 is “the proper time-frame for an iPad 2.”
And why? Well, Marshall believes that Verizon’s iPhone 4 is related to iPad 2. He said: “Since I’m projecting that Apple will release a CDMA iPhone in March, both will help to equalize Apple’s seasonality.”
Clap, clap, clap. Apple has more secrets than Harry Potter’s Gryffindor.
Aside from Brian Marshall’s predictions, other tech sites and blogs think the iPad 2 will arrive earlier, like: February 2011. The basis of course is still the CDMA iPhone courtesy of Verizon Wireless.
And how about the folder, mutitasking and etc. functionalities for first gen iPad users? Well, CNET is reporting that iOS 4.2 for iPad “has plenty of features to offer.”
Aside from features that we’re already waiting for, CNET reveals that iOS 4.2 for iPad now “lets you search for local printers, search for instances of a word on Web pages, adjust brightness from the multitask screen, and much more.”
I think the “adjust brightness” function using the screen is perfect for users like grandpa and co. Reading an E-Book in iPad is one of the reasons why this tablet is an instant hit.
