Angry iPad 3 owners vent frustration over iPad 4 release
VANCOUVER SUN OCTOBER 23, 2012 3:56 PM

As expected, Apple unveiled the iPad Mini on Tuesday, October 23. The tech giant surprised many observers by announcing the release of the iPad 4 just months after the iPad 3 went on sale.

Those most caught off-guard by the announcement: iPad 3 owners who shelled out hundreds of dollars for a tablet that went from top-of-the-line to out-of-date in the span of six months.

There may be some hope for iPad 3 owners looking to upgrade. A CNET story states that Apple may allow you to exchange your iPad 3 for an iPad 4 if you purchased it within the last 30 days.

Those customers who purchased the iPad 3 more than month ago may be out of luck.

Many iPad 3 owners vented their frustration at the iPad 4 announcement.
