We’ve had numerous rumors surrounding the launch date of Apple’s next generation iPad. But now it seems we have a different launch date according to sources.

According to a blog post on AllThingsD, the next iPad will be launched in the first week of March and not in February as previously speculated.

The blog which is owned by Dow Jones, publisher of the Wall Street Journal states that the iPad 3 is most likely to be announced in San Francisco at a big event most probably set to take place in the Yerba Buena Centre for Arts. The source says that Apple would start selling the new tablet a week after the announcement has been made.

The iPad 2 was launched on 11th March 2011 at an event after the MWC (Mobile World Congress) 2011 that took place from 14th – 17th February 2011. This year however MWC is from 27th February – 1st March 2012 and that means Apple’s event will be much closer and will grab a lot of attention away from the MWC products.

This will also be the first iPad launched in the absence of Steve Jobs and this could possibly be the last one he helped design as well. That coupled with the impressive feature list that has been rumored is sure to attract a lot of customers.

Bloomberg reports according to "three people familiar with the product", Apple will launch iPad 3 in March, which will come with a high-definition screen, run a faster processor and also work on 4G LTE networks. Bloomberg reports:

The company’s manufacturing partners in Asia started ramping up production of the iPad 3 this month and plan to reach full volumes by February, said one of the people, who asked not to be named because the details aren’t public. The tablet will use a quad-core chip, an enhancement that lets users jump more quickly between applications, two of the people said. 

Bloomberg goes on to add:

Apple is bringing LTE to the iPad before the iPhone because the tablet has a bigger battery and can better support the power requirements of the newer technology, said one of the people.

The new display is capable of greater resolution than the current iPad, with more pixels on its screen than some high- definition televisions, the person said. The pixels are small enough to make the images look like printed material, according to the person. Videos begin playing almost instantly because of the additional graphics processing, the person said. 

As reported earlier in the week, Bloomberg also claims that the iPad 3 production started at the beginning of the month.

Apple is widely expected to launch iPad 3 with Retina Display. However, there has been contradictory rumors about the thickness of the next iPad. Some reports have claimed that it will be slightly thicker to accomodate the change in LED backlight design for iPad 3's Retina Display, while others insist iPad 3 will be thinner than iPad 2.

We really hope that this rumor of a iPad 3 with Retina Display, quad-core processor and 4G LTE support turns out to be true. What about you?

A few days ago, we saw Andy Rubin playing with a Motorola tablet, and the tablet was running Honeycomb, which is an upcoming version of Android, and it’s especially designed for tablets. Andy Rubin didn’t reveal any further information about the OS, but now DigiTimes is saying that Honeycomb will be launching in March next year. DigiTimes said:

MSI is also prepared to sell an Nvidia Tegra 2-based model in April or May after Google releases Android 3.0 in March.

DigiTimes is a trusted source, and they are true most of the time. A few days ago, we also heard that Google will be launching Honeycomb a.k.a Android 2.4 in February. So what I think is that Google will launch the Honeycomb in February or March. Honeycomb comes with a new fresh user interface, which is especially designed for tablets. As Motorola is also announcing the Motorola Honeycomb tablet at CES 2011, so I hope Motorola will tell us when Honeycomb is actually coming. So folks, tell us what are your thoughts about Honeycomb.
