iMore reports that they've discovered references to iPad 3 in iOS 5.1 beta that was seeded to developers of iOS Developer program last week.iMore reports:
Evidence of Apple’s next-gen iPad has been spotted again in iOS 5.1, with beta 3 mentioning two new “J” third-gen models along with hints of potential future Facebook integration. The J1AP and J2AP variants are believed to be the WiFi-only and WiFi + 3G iterations of the iPad 2, iMore reports, the two codenames resurfacing again after having been spotted with “Retina Display” indications back in November.
It is not the first time references to iPad 3 have been discovered in an iOS software update. iPad 3 references started showing up in iOS 5 software update. The discovery of codenames J1AP and J2AP is also in line with a report by Taiwanese publication DigiTimes back in November 2011, which claimed that Apple was prototyping two versions of iPad 3 that were codenamed J1 and J2.
In addition to the iPad 3 references, iMore also reports that they have discovered references in iOS 5.1, which hint at the possibility of Facebook integration coming to iOS. However, as they point out it could be residual code from Apple's effort to bring Facebook integration in iOS 4, which had to be shelved as both companies did not come to an agreement.
There is currently no ETA on when Apple will release iOS 5.1.
