Sounds more like a series of Audi cars than processors ... but the new A6 ARM chip could be featured in Apple's upcoming iPad 3.

"iPad 3 looks to be a major bump, will likely be Apple's first LTE modem, may pack its first homemade core, too. Apple, Inc. (AAPL) announced the original iPad in January 2010, and it hit the market in April 2010.  The polished device was undeniably a game-changing product that turned an often-overlooked niche (tablets) into a booming market.   It was about this time last year that Apple sent out its occasions to a special event.  That event -- on March 1 -- turned out to be late Apple CEO and co-founder Steven P. Jobs' last major product announcement -- the iPad 2.

I. What is Known Thus Far

The iPad 3 has been semi-confirmed to have  a "Retina" display made by LG Display Comp., Ltd. (KS:034220) (sister company to LG Electronics Inc. (KS:066570)).  A report in The Korean Times quotes LG Display CEO Young Soo Kwon as confirming that Retina-display iPads are in production.  The publication writes, "[Kwon] said more smartphone manufacturers will release new models employing LG’s “Retina Display’’ that has been used in iPhones and iPads."
