In what shouldn’t be too much of a jolt for anyone, Wall Street Journal is reporting that the next generation iPad is now in production, which would coincide nicely with the rumours that the iPad 2 will be released in the next four to six weeks.
However, Wall Street Journal report doesn’t offer a whole lot of details, but they cite their sources as saying that the new iPad will be thinner, lighter and will come with a faster processor, more memory and a more powerful graphics processor, and with a front facing camera.
In fact the next iPad will not feature a higher resolution display. Wall Street Journal sources note that the new iPad’s display will be similar to the current model. It also noted that the new iPad will be available through Verizon and AT&T stores, which is no surprise since both now offer the iPhone.
However, the new device will not be available through Sprint or T-Mobile. Therefore the next generation iPad is widely expected to be unveiled by the end of February with a March shipping date.
