Apple announces 4th generation iPad

It's not quite what we expected, but Apple has just introduced us to a new, 4th generation iPad at it's event in San Jose, California today. It's essentially a hardware refresh for Apple's 3rd gen slate, as it packs the A6X processor, a 720p Facetime camera round front and the new image processor found in the iPhone 5. Of course, it also gets the reversible Lightning port that debuted on on the iPhone, and will be available in both black and white. Pricing stays the same as its predecessor, with a 16GB WiFi version for $499 and a 16GB model with cellular data on board will cost $629.
