iPad 3 Release Date Before Thanksgiving?

The iPad 3 may have a release date prior to US Thanksgiving

The China Times is claiming that Apple is set to release the iPad 3 by Thanksgiving. This of course could also be the release of the newly rumored iPad 2 HD or iPad 2 Plus. Rumors of a fall release date for the iPad 3 have been reported since the release of the iPad 2. The iPad 2 of course was released in March of this year, and was short of many expectations. China Times has released information that the supplies have been ordered for the first production run of both the iPhone 5 and the Apple iPad 3.

Rumors have the iPhone 5 being released in September and then the iPad 3 right around Thanksgiving. The day after Thanksgiving, known as Black Friday and the unofficial starting day of the holiday shopping season, is rumored to be a possible release date for the iPad 3. The iPhone 5 is rumored to have several major changes in the design. This of course is unconfirmed by Apple at this time. The iPad 3 is of course rumored to have a new high definition display, and possibly a Retina Display. Other improvements could include a faster processor and a much needed improved camera.

What about the iPad 2 HD?

The iPad 2 HD has also been rumored to be the next tablet from iPad, putting the iPad 3 on hold until 2012. At this point the China Times doesn’t reference which of the models are going to be released. If the iPad 2 HD is going to be the next release you can expect to see fewer improvements then with a release of an entirely new model. The iPad 2 HD, if real, is expected to be an upgrade to the display. However the rest of the design is to remain the same or very similar to the current iPad 2. This is similar to what Apple has done with phone releases in recent history.

The newest models could in fact be announced much sooner then this dates. If the release date for the iPad 3 is in fact Black Friday then the announcement could come much earlier. A possible roll out for the iPhone 5 and the iPad 3 could occur at the same time with the release of the iOS 5. This of course has been mentioned as a possibility it now seems like it may occur.
