+1 my mate is a district manager at phones 4 u and they have on the system ipad 3 but there is no date shops never get dates until apple physically says 1 publicly....

Again though, this will just be a stock marker being used internally by phones 4 u - it wont have come from Apple. If it had, tech blogs like Engadget would have picked up on it.

iPhone 5 is almost 100% certainly coming out this year, most likely september. The white 4 is irrelevant, its a year old phone and the galaxy S II is light years ahead.
It will be a bigger upgrade from the 3GS to 4, i didn't even bother as you only really got a camera and the applications didn't stretch the processor until more recently. Retina was the only thing i wanted.
Expect the A5 chip from the ipad 2, a different shell (Apple doesnt like the iPhone 4 shape any more) and as thin or thinner than the iPad 2. Also expect an 8MP camera. Other than that who knows?!

iPad 3 will be an iPad 2 'pro' with a better screen (maybe retina) and possibly thunderbolt connections. Everything is speculation though with Apple.

Quote from: LG's retina display CEO
According to the Korea Times, while talking to a bunch of reporters about LG's Retina Display he let slip more smartphone manufacturers will release new models employing LG's Retina Display "that has been used in iPhones and iPads"

Im holding off an iPad 2 until i see what gets released, again a September date is likely.

Oh and America do 1 year contracts now as most smart phones have 6 month - 1 year life cycle and they picked up they can make good money from yearly upgrades.

I'm not being funny but people in the phone shops and call centers wont know anything more than the general public.

Any thing they do know would can probably be found on the internet anyway.

My friend works in the o2 call center and he knows his stuff about O2 and deals with iphones a lot and he doesn't know anything breath taking.


Ipad 3 will not be out this year. I will bet my car on it..

They will call it iPad 2 'pro' or 'S' or something but a new iPad will be out before the 3.

I wouldnt bet your money on that at all!!!! and apple had allready said the 5 will not be a major upgrade more working out the probs of the 4 and the white iphone 4 is not irrelevant as it cost apple millions delaying it due to colour leak on the screen so they will want to sell a few units lol!! If the iphone 5 comes out this year i will be very surprised.... and yes us do 1 year contracts but like hereto get phone free most contracts are 24 months... as for spec of the iphone 5 everything is nothing more than a rumour!

Yea but anyone that does that is mad, i would rather pay and get a smaller contract.

Apple has not 'said' anything about the iPhone 5 not being a major upgrade. Its all speculation. The major consensus is that it will be a major upgrade, they wont try an get away with a little change or people will just give up and get something else.
Going on the stock they are buying up i would put money on it being a leap forward, even if its just internal; A5 processor, better camera.

Why anyone would get the iPhone 4 in white is beyond me, its a year old phone you need to put in a case to work so cant see its white any way  :rolleyes:
