iOS 4.3 beta hints at next generation iPhones and iPads

One of the best parts about getting to playing around with a new OS update is the ability to spot new/hidden features and support for new devices. That’s what the folks over at Engadget did – they looked through the code of iOS 4.3 and have discovered some new devices that were tested with or are supported by the operating system. They found code keys for new products which aren’t available on the market now. iPad2,1, iPad2,2, iPad2,3, iPhone4,1, iPhone4,2 – were all spotted in the OS code. Other than the fact that the keys confirm the existence of the next iPad and iPhone (Verizon’s iPhone is iPhone3,2) we don’t know anything else but it’s safe to say that the devices are already in the works, now all we need is official word from Apple but until then we can only guess what they will be like.
