I really hope not! It seems like that every time I get an apple product they are coming out with a new one quickly, that’s sucks!

[...] next guy when it comes to a new iPad. So I’m as enthusiastic as anyone about the possibility of Apple change their release cycle for the iPad to twice a year and bringing us more new iPads this year. A lighter, thinner standard iPad this year sounds great, [...]

Nah, Im still happy with the ipad2. I’ve never tried the retina of the 4 because I don’t want to feel the need to buy it. The 2 is number 1 for me.

You do raise some good points as new iPad Retina and iPad mini owners must be fuming as they’re hearing about these rumors. While it’s true that Apple’s product release schedule is beginning to become too aggressive for my tastes, other tech companies have been refreshing their SKUs at the rate of one every two months. Apple has the right (as well as the money) to refresh whenever they choose, especially since the iPad line falls strictly under the luxury items category.

My circumstances regarding a possible iPad/iPad mini refresh coming in March have (for once) put me in an advantageous position. I’m a temporary employee so my budget throughout the year is limited, yet I pay enough taxes so that I could purchase one ridiculously expensive yet shiny new tech toy every March. Usually I would be bothered by an abrupt change in product scheduling but (like the first Nvidia-equipped Mac mini that I’m typing this comment on), this revision (if it’s true) will come at the right time for me.

Even if Apple doesn’t place a Retina screen in the iPad mini (due to lack of supply or compromise on physical size/battery life), a bump in specs to 1GB of RAM and the A6 processor would be good enough. While I viewed my friend’s iPhone 5 and was blown away by the screen, I’ve also tried out the iPad mini and am willing to deal with the screen as-is.

This feels like Tim Cooke is rushing out the remaining products in Steve Jobs’ play book before he leaves Apple

I don’t have a problem as long as they keep a fair support cycle. Like when siri came out and an iPhone 4 couldn’t have it, at least a year had gone by. I’d be pretty aggravated if they introduced a big new feature 6 months after buying the previous model.
