Gagdgets: What is due for 2012, and ones we care most about

 Apple iPad 3:
 Rumoured to be anounced as early as next month. The new ipad will be packed as a high res 2048x1536 pixel display, NFC technology for contactless payment, an A6 processor and also could be 3d!! Sounds great, but as we found out with the iphone4s, we wont know until it arrives, as these things are kept hush hush.
VERDICT: If you dont own an ipad but have cash for one, wait and get it. Otherwise, Im sure if you recently bought the ipad 2 then stay with it, unless you have to have the newest of the new!! Either way, it should be great.

 Google Tablet:
The company president himself has hinted towards a google branded
tablet in hope to rival the ipad!! A;so stated to be brutal competition to the ipad, with this new Android tablet.
VERDICT: Sounds like alot of tough words, as Im sure google have
inhaled there own belief as being viable competetors!!
But because we overall use google is not simply a good enough standing to produce a tablet. Yet again we see the word Android, the
one thing that apple really does seperate from!!
Well im sure this will be expensive, even though it wont at all rival
the ipad, nor did the samsung galaxy, even though that is expensive.
Only buy if you have serious issues with apple!!! Which could only be personal!!!!
 
 

 iphone 5:
Expected for release in the autumn, this is stated to be an all new design. So if you had the iphone 4, and were disgruntled with the iphone 4s, then im sure you will want this one. No doubt ebay will be full of sale iphones as everyone upgrades. Those that got the iphone 4s, well im sure waiting a year wont kill you, well if your signed to a contract that is!! 5 inch screen is also rumoured!!!
VERDICT: Never had an iphone, and stuck with a Blackberry, get one, they really are ahead of the times. You dont want to be paying out for a large screened samsung, as the standard is higher on the iphione, i promise!!!

 Apple HDTV:
This is to be Apple's launch into TV sets now also. Screens are said to be made via Sharpe (how random) . Unsure of specs yet or even if it will be 3D, but with rumours of ipad 3 3D, im sure it wont be long. You can imagine an interesting intergrated i0S system also. So keep a look out for mid 2012 for updates!!
VERDICT: Based on there computer monitors and the display on an even older mac, this would probably be great, all depending on how true the sharpe screen thing is!!! Either way worth a good look, but expect prices to be insane!!

 Wii U :
Said to have an in built 6.2inch touchscreen which works alongside the main display, and can also be used as a gaming devise. Introducing a long awaited HD content at 1080p, with an internal flash memory. Easily upgraded via USB or SD. Hopefully hitting stores in 2012, but no yet stated date.
VERDICT: From little information we have, it could go either way, but based on the 3DS, this could be successful in comparrison.

 Smsung Galaxy SIII:
Ok, so the Galaxy phone was successful, and this has its work cut out to produce something spectacular! Expected to have a 12 megapixel camera, expect news in mid 2012.
VERDICT: If you really hae apple, get one!!!

 Other bits include..........Amazon Kindle Fire (read BORING), Intel Ultrabooks (read macbook air copy wanna be), Google TV (read sloppy reception in the states, not good), and PSP Vita (read another game console slowly becoming passe)
