Apple's iPad 3 will have a 'HD screen, faster processor and next generation wireless'


Apple's new iPad 3 will sport a high definition screen, run a more powerful processor and will tap into next generation wireless networks, new leaks have hinted. 

Details about the new model, which is expected to go on sale in March with production in full swing by February, have been kept largely under-wraps. 
However, new sources have confirmed rumours that the latest tablet will use a quad-core chip, an enhancement that lets users jump more quickly between applications.

The new display offers resolutions four times higher than the current model, with more pixels on its screen than some HD televisions, a source told Blomberg. 
In addition, videos begin playing almost instantly because of the additional graphics processing, they added.
The introduction of the new iPad will be Apple’s first major release since the death of company co-founder Steve Jobs in October. 
 Apple has been working on making the iPad compatible with a wireless standard called LTE (long- term evolution) another source told Bloomberg.
Smartphone makers, including Samsung, Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc. and Nokia, have already introduced smartphones that work on the faster networks.
Apple is bringing LTE to the iPad before the iPhone because the tablet has a larger battery and can better support its power requirements, the source told Bloomberg.

The California-based company is counting on the new model to ward off mounting competition from rival products in a market that Apple pioneered two years ago.
Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris told Bloomberg that the company does not comment on rumours and leaks.
Production of the tablet has been pushed forward in Asia, ahead of the Chinese New Year on January 22-28, with factories running 24 hours a day.
