Apple iPad 3 in March

Apple iPad 3 in March

iPad 3 will ensure Apple continued supremacy in the tablet market till October, when the killer iPad 4 arrives to demolish the challenge posed by Windows 8 tablets powered by Intel Clover Trail-W processors.

Sources amidst Taiwanese component manufacturers tell Digitimes that the iPad 3, to be launched in March, will feature a QXGA (1,536x2,048 pixels) display and longer battery life. Past reports have talked of a 14,000 mAh battery to be supplied by Simplo Technology and Dynapack International Technology.

Following the launch of iPad 3, Apple will reduce the price of iPad 2 to undercut competition from vendors such as Sony, Motorola Mobility and Samsung Electronics, who have products priced around the $359 mark.

Perceiving a more credible threat from Windows 8 tablets powered by Intel's Clover Trail-W chipsets that support Windows applications such as Microsoft Office, Apple will launch the 9.7-inch iPad 4 with souped up hardware and integrated application suite in October.

Windows applications overwhelmingly remain ingrained into corporate IT culture. No matter how good and slick the integrated application suite that Apple comes up with, the challenge from Wintel- or WoA (Windows on ARM)-based tablet PCs to be released in the fourth quarter will remain formidable.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
