Apple Refreshes The New iPad – Makes it Newer
Apple has pissed a lot of people off today, especially people who just bought The New iPad. Today they just refreshed that model after just 7 months. The new 4th Generation iPad has a few minor changes, but enough changes to get people upset.
The New iPad that was just announced today will stay at the same exact price point. You will however notice that Apple is moving everything away from the 30 pin dock connection to the new Lightning interface. Keeping the 10 hour battery life the same, the newer iPad has been upgraded from an A5X processor to the new A6X processor offering 2x the performance. You will also see 2x the speed with an upgraded dual-band wifi antenna.

iPhone 5 will have improved cameras
The next generation iPhone, called iPhone 5 for the time being, will most likely get some improved cameras. The new camera will offer the same 8 mega pixels, but with offer an improved aperture of f/2.4 to f/2.2 in order to reduce camera module height by nearly 0.5 mm. This needs to be done in order to slim down the next generation iPhone so that it can take advantage of the larger screen and slimmer design.
The front camera will receive the largest improvement. Previous iPhone’s had a very nice rear camera and then a crapy VGA front camera. The iPhone 5 is expected to have an HD front camera to make better use of Apple’s FaceTime. Currently these are all just rumors until we hear an official announcement from Apple. Hopefully it will be at WWDC next Monday. Stay tuned.

As we get closer and closer to the review on the next generation iPhone 5, we are going to see more and more convincing pictures of what the next iPhone will look like. 9to5mac was able to obtain some high resolution pictures of what appear to be the iPhone 5. This new design features black and white next gen metal (not liquidmetal like some were expecting), a new smaller dock connector. This will probably be a mini or micro USB, or possibly thunderbolt. We see that the headphone jack has been moved to the bottom. There is a small opening between the rear camera and LED flash. This is most likely another microphone.
The new frame indicates that the new iPhone will be the same width as the current 4 and 4S models, but it will be longer. We can expect to see a larger screen with a resolutions around 1136 x 640 pixels. It also appears the the front FaceTime camera is now centered above the ear piece. This next generation iPhone may be announced at WWDC next month and is iOS 6 is rumored to be launched along side this new iPhone.
