Yet another report states that Apple's third-generation iPad willoffer high-speed 4G LTE connectivity, as the company looks to offerhigh quality video to users on the go. Citing a source familiar with Apple's next iPad, Reuters was the latest to report on Tuesday that the third-generation tablet will be capable of operating on4G long-term evolution networks from carriers AT&T and Verizon. The4G-capable iPad will offer speeds up to 10 times faster than thecurrent 3G models. The report by authors Poornima Gupta and Sinead Carew suggestsApple's primary intention in offering 4G LTE is to "tempt more U.S.customers to pay extra to watch high-quality video on the go." Italso said that the addition of 4G could "go a long way towardbanishing the sometimes shaky video quality of older devices." While the report focused on video playback, it did not offer anyindication that Apple plans to modify or expand its own offeringson iTunes. One recent separate report from last week indicated that Apple is "pushing ahead" with plans to release astreaming TV service, but that is not expected to become availableuntil later this year. Apple's interest in online video is also believed to be tied to thecompany's rumored plans to build a full-fledged television set.Numerous reports have indicated that Apple is at work on such adevice, including one in January that said famed Apple designerJonathan Ive has a 50-inch prototype set in his California design studio. The quality of video on the go could be a greater factor with thenext-generation iPad, as it is expected to feature ahigh-resolution Retina Display. A pair of recent rumors have evensuggested that Apple will name its next tablet the "iPad HD," for high-definition. The third-generation iPad is expected to have a screen resolutionof 2,048-by-1,536 pixels, which would be a pixel density doublethat of the current iPad 2. It's also a resolution greater than a1080p high-definition television set. Beyond the iPad, video is also expected to play a part in thisweek's media briefing in the form of an updated Apple TV . Recent stock-outs of the current model, released in late 2010,strongly suggest that Apple plans to update the product with a newmodel this week. Apple's media event will be held Wednesday, March 7 at 10 a.m. atthe Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, Calif. AppleInsider will have full, live coverage.
