iOS 5.1 Beta References Unreleased iPad 2 Variant (iPad2,4)


iOS 5.1 Beta SDK reveals a never seen before iPad product id, according to 9to5Mac. The new product id is "iPad2,4", suggesting a minor variant of the current iPad 2 line. 

The current iPad carries the following number designations, which show differences based on the type of cellular antenna, if any: 

iPad2,1 - Wi-Fi iPad 
iPad2,2 - AT&T iPad 2 
iPad2,3 - Verizon iPad 2 

Naturally, "iPad2,4" could represent a Sprint supporting variant of the iPad 2 that has been previously rumored. Apple was reportedly considering a Sprint iPad launch before the holidays, though it seems less likely at this late date. 

At this stage, it's not clear if and when Apple might introduce such a model or wait until the iPad 3 launches to introduce Sprint compatibility.
