My bad, meant to say stopgap... It was obvious that the New iPad or iPad III or whatever it was called was more a gap-stop to the newer model iPad that came out later that year. Besides, an iPad is not an iPhone and no where near as dependant on time cycles tied into carrier commitments. And again, there's no iOS 8 yet so how can their be a new i-device? Again, doesn't make sense. iOS isn't Android where new devices are still being introduced running an operating system that is almost a year old (KitKat) and when a new one is going to be released in only a few weeks. I would of course like for a new iPhone to pop up sooner than later, but all indicators point to it not being the case. I'll even take an Apple TV which indeed may be a more plausable assumption as it is not dependant on iOS and is overdue for an upgrade anyway.

If Apple really cared it wouldn't have RELEASED 2 Apple iPads IN the same year. (i.e., April 2012 Apple iPad & October 2012 Apple iPad 4) Only 6 months between releases. Do you RECALL that.
