[Androidme2018]- Apple unveiled the next generation tablets of their iPad line at today’s special event: the iPad Air and the iPad mini with Retina display. This was another mobscene event at the Yerba Bueno Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco, and like at most Apple events we are still waiting for them to release something that is actually new.

iPad Air
Along with the new MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, which are available for shipping today and the Mac Pro, available at the end of the year, Apple presented their new tablets. The iPad Air, the new name for their iPad line, was dropped like a gloriously light bomb, packing a Retina display and the same A7 chip that was delivered in the highly popular iPhone 5s. It also will have extended LTE band support, Wi-Fi with MIMO, dual microphone and of course, Siri. The new and improved 5 MP iSight and FaceTime cameras also have some improved features such as backside illuminations. Some of the built-in apps, complemented by the iOS 7 operating system, are iLife and iWork (which is free), as well as Notes, Game Center, Numbers, iBooks, Remote and Garage Band

This new iPad generation is apparently a whopping 72% faster than the original iPad, 43% thinner than the previous editions with a newly rounded bezel and is said to be the lightest tablet ever made. I give it to Apple for trying to make comfortable-to-use devices that have excellent haptics.
The new iPad Air will be available on November 1st 2013 in a variety of countries, including the USA, Canada and the UK, in multiple colors: silver, white, space grey and black. It's also interesting to note that the iPad Air will be available in China.

On top of the new devices, they've announced a new cover for their iPads, which will cost $39 US. A case for the Air will be sold for $79 US and $69 US for the mini.
So when will the next products drop? If Apple would start making not just the same old suff, maybe wearables and TV’s, like they’ve been alluding to, this would be a day when we might take some interest in Apple. According to the live blog’s poll on CNET, most people don’t even care about getting an iWatch. So maybe, once they've actually figured out where they want to expand, either home electronics, entertainment and such, then this will be the time when they start developing stuff other than their iPad and iPhone lines.
