    Apple never release details dates in advance, Iphone 5 is expected end of this month early next but beyond that it's not certain.

    Apple also tend to have a 1 year upgrade cycle, so as Ipad1 was Jan 2010 and Ipad 2 was March 2011 it would be around 1st qyuarter 2012 when it's released, but it's all speculation at the moment..

    I wouldn't rush in to buy the Ipad3. After all, the Ipad4 will be along the year after. ;)

    Thanks gjchester you have been very helpful. It will be great to own one. The iphone has completely revolutionised my work; so I would expect the same from the ipad 3.
