Developers Still Manage to Find Real References to iPad 3 in iOS 5.1 Beta 2

Despite Apple trying to obscure references to its upcoming devices, developers have still managed to find real references to the iPad 3 in iOS 5.1 beta 2, reports TUAW.

In between the garbage, there's a reference to the iPad 3. Each reference has a device id of 1, so we know it points to an actual device. Finding the iPad 3 isn't all that surprising as we have seen similar references before. This discovery is just another piece of evidence that suggests Apple will start selling the tablet this spring.

Notably, a real reference to the iPhone 5 is missing from the config file which suggests its launch is father down the line.
