Apple’s next generation of iPad will be 15% thinner and 25% lighter than the fourth-generation model.
The reduction in its size is due to a handful of modifications. The battery is supposed to be 25 percent to 30 percent smaller and improvements on display panels and A-series chip technology, which now uses less energy. Apple also will use the same touch technology found on the iPad mini, which is thinner than what it currently uses on its full-size iPads. This is just the latest in a series of rumors and murmurs pointing to a slimmer iPad. Apple’s used what’s effectively been the same outside design for the device for the past three versions, something of an abnormality when compared with the iPhone and iPod line.

The reason Apple is suffering now, is they haven't changed the interface for it's computer or it's Mobil devices for years. Sure they change the look and design, of their products to try to keep it looking trendy. But they always for get the main thing, the user interface. The user experience on the iPhone 5 is the same as it was when Apple launched the iPod Touch. The same look, feel and design. While on Android, Windows, and Blackberry devices, they have revamped their interfaces to make them more real time and interactive. While OS X and iOS has been keeping the same boring look and feel for years. What good is it having a cool looking device, when you are tired, and bored with it's experience?

I have an Ipad 3. Being blind, I don't find the interface at all boring as it is much easier to use the ipad than the pc. But I do agree, Apple needs to get on the ball once again. Pacman  |
