Jon Peddie has just published on his blog his info on what may be inside the new Apple iPad. He covers what we already know (the 9.7″ IPS LCD screen, 4:3 Aspect Ratio, LED Backlights, etc) and then gets into what he believes the fabled Apple A4 Processor is.
We believe that design includes a 1 GHz ARM Cortex A9 processor, and Imagination Technologies SGX 535 (see TechWatch vol.10 No.2, page 2) graphics core, and is being fabricated for Apple by Samsung.
The Cortex A9 is the same belief that BSN was passing around, but JPR has a much better track record than BSN on such details so I believe their SGX535 chipset theory much more. The Graphics Chipset, the SGX535, is the PowerVR chipset that runs the iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch.
