It seems pretty likely that the invitation to Apple’s iPad 3 event includes a shot of the new model. If that’s the case, the new iPad has no home button like all current and previous iOS devices.
The spacing of the icon’s on the iPad pictured on the invite clearly indicate that it’s in portrait orientation rather than landscape. But there’s no sign of a home button – a design change that Apple has been allegedly been toying with for some time. Google has already deprecated the use of physical buttons on devices and moved to software-only onscreen controls.
