The device will still be 10 inches and will feature front and rear cameras, confirming earlier speculations about it.
The Ipad 2, according to Engadget's sources, will have a built-in dedicated SD slot and will feature a dual GSM/CDMA chipset by Qualcomm, This means that Apple will likely veer away from Infineon and will make Qualcomm its chipset maker for all of its mobile devices. The dual-mode chipset was most likely adapted so Verizon and AT&T can offer the same iPad simultaneously.
iPhone 5, on the other hand, will be a completely redesigned handset which is set to launch this summer. The phone, according to the sources, will also feature a Qualcomm chipset that does triple duty as the GSM/CDMA/UMTS baseband processor.
Customers can also purchase accessories for the iPad, though shipping times are currently varied. The iPad Case, which runs $39, and the iPad Dock, for $29, are both expected to ship by April 3. The iPad Keyboard Dock is scheduled to ship in mid-April and costs $69.
The $29 iPad 10W USB Power Adapter ships in late April, while the $29 iPad Dock Connector to VGA Adapter ships by April 3. Finally, the Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic, which cost $79, ship within 24 hours.
