John Gruber of Daring Fireball has subtly noted today that Apple may be moving to a 6-month release schedule for their popular iPad tablet.
In response to the unveiling of the HP TouchPad, Gruber says:

The software looks great, it really does, but:
Planned availability this summer.

Summer feels like a long time away. If my theory is right, they’re not only going to be months behind the iPad 2, but if they slip until late summer, they might bump up against the release of the iPad 3. And not only did they announce this with a distant ship date, they did it with no word on pricing.


Gruber is known as one of the best-sourced Apple reporters on the planet, and had most of the specs of the iPhone 4 correct before it leaked.
