iPad 3 will be Released At Steve Jobs Birthday - Apple is known to have a tradition of launching new products in a particular month and day. But for the iPad 3, Apple seems to be avoiding that habit.
Rumors circulated, the latest generation iPad will be released in 2012. But the exact date remains a mystery. The latest report that is reported by 9to5Mac, the iPad 3 will be released right on the birthday of Steve Jobs, February 24, 2012, to commemorate the departure of former CEO of Apple.
9to5Mac noted, Apple has a habit of announcing new gadgets at the press event that is held on Tuesday or Wednesday and then release it on Friday or Saturday. Well, February 24, 2012 is known to fall on Friday.
To further convince the reader, this Apple's product review site also includes flashbacks of iPad 2. At that time, the second-generation of Apple tablet goes on sale in the United States (U.S.) on Friday, March 11, 2011 after previously introduced on Wednesday, March 2, 2011.
Jobs who at that time was on leave for treatment, made a surprise appearance to introduce the iPad 2, "We have worked hard for this product and I do not want to miss this day," said Jobs then.
Meanwhile, the iPad was introduced on Wednesday, January 27, 2010 and went on sale in the U.S. premiere on Saturday, April 3, 2010.
