The iPad 2 isn’t even official yet, but already the speculation over the third-generation version of the Apple tablet has begun in earnest. Prompted by Daring Fireball‘s John Gruber predicting that HP might struggle with the Touchpad because “If my theory is right, they’re not only going to be months behind the iPad 2, but if they slip until late summer, they might bump up against the release of the iPad 3,” TechCrunch sources stepped up with the supposedly solid news that there would be two iPad refreshes in 2011: the iPad 2, imminently, and then the iPad 3 this fall.
Actual specs of the iPad 3 are shrouded in mystery, though there’s talk of the Retina Display originally tipped for the iPad 2 making its appearance in the third-gen model. Whether there’s enough time in-between the two versions for Apple to push down the margins on that expensive display hardware remains to be seen.
Gruber later went on to clarify that his comments about the iPad 3 were speculative, but he does maintain that Apple likely intends to bring forward the third-gen model’s release from early 2012 to more in line with the iPod refresh cycle in September. “They’re not going to leave any gas in the tank pushing the iPad hardware specs forward as fast as they can” he concludes.
Today we were treated to a presentation by HP that might completely turn webOS around, out of the dark spaces of everyone’s doubt centers and into a very plausible option place for many soon-to-be seekers of tablets in this new market. The tablet in question is the HP TouchPad, running webOS 3.0 and looking like not a half bad idea for a workstation on the go. We decided to match it up against a couple contenders, first the Motorola XOOM Android tablet, now the Apple iPad. How does the TouchPad measure up? You be the judge.
As you’re about to see, these two tablets are very similar in some ways, and very different in others. Will the iPad’s massive library of applications from the Apple App Store keep you with the fruit? Or will you join the somehow brand sparkling new ship sailing out of HP headquarters today on seas called webOS 3.0?
Check out the big chart and let us know what seems more enticing to you. We’ve been shaken today by the release of these new HP products, and we’re certainly glad to see another contender in the tablet game, one that isn’t a fruit nor is it a green robot. We’ve been watching webOS but we’ve not been placing any bets on it. Looks like that might very well be about to change.
