New report shows iPad 3 with LTE capability, quad-core A6 processor

A new report has surfaced from Boy Genius Report claiming a source has provided them with images containing information about the iPad 3.

The image at left seems to reveal details of the iPad 3‘s specifications – particularly that the device will feature a quad-core processor in addition to global LTE capabilities.

Additionally the information indicates two iPad model numbers J1 and J2 (iPad 3,1 and iPad 3,2), two different devices, one WiFi only, with the other sporting WiFi and GSM/CDMA/LTE connectivity options, making the tablet compatible with carriers in all parts of the world.

To whet one’s appetitie for the iPad 3 further, it appears Apple’s quad-core A6 processor will be under the device’s hood, model S5L8945X. The current line of Apple processors, A4 and A5, have  model numbers S5L8930X and S5L8940X.

If the A6 is in the next iPad, it would be the speediest iOS device on the market when released.  Here’s hoping upgrades to the cameras, display and battery life join the dynamite A6 processor on the iPad 3.

    Two things I don’t wake up and go to bed saying:  1) Damn, my iPad is slow.  2) Sure it’s going to be another $799 but I can use this one in Kuala Lampur!
