So far, all iPad models had come with a 10W charger that managed to recharge the device's battery in a relatively short time.
With the arrival of the third-generation iPad, Apple had to include a higher capacity battery and that greatly increased the time required to complete a charge cycle. We were also able to verify that in very demanding applications, the 10W charger was not capable of supplying the necessary energy to prevent the battery from continuing to discharge little by little.
With the new 12W charger, Apple tries significantly reduce loading times on any of your devices. This accessory will come standard with the fourth generation iPad although it can also be purchased individually in the Apple Store Online for a price of 19 euros.
Despite its power, this charger is compatible with a wide range of products, including different models of iPod and iPhone.

Hi how are things? Any of you have any idea why the third generation ipad disappears from the apple store?
To laugh at your customers.
Mayin .. Because they have released the 4th generation iPad and they will no longer sell the 3rd generation .. A shame! Because 6 months ago the New iPad came out and they just released the 4th generation .. They should see the 4th generation iPad taken out for next year as for the iPad 2 to the New ipad I do not know why they have done this madness and above nothing changes simply the speed .. Instead of taking another design thinner and with less weight .. As they have done with the iPad mini .. Too bad! In 6 months my New iPad is as if it were obsolete and on top of it it will have lost value.
Appalling!!!! From vdd that apple marketing is garbage vdd? If you notice, even the add 4 costs less than the add 3 that we bought, Q DISAPPOINTMENT!
This shows that Apple is capable of producing more powerful products than it offers and yet prefers to limit in order to have something to offer in the next generation and say it is new. Between that and software limitations force renovation
Do they force renewal? if the mini ipad is still an ipad2 and the ipad2 is still for sale, that is defending poor lawsuits as they say in my land. All the best
