Bloomberg: Apple’s splashing gold paint on the iPad too

The nice thing about living in Apple’s ecosystem is everything is consistent: the app library, the user interface and design motifs echo across all of the company’s devices. Well, unless you have a gold iPhone — then any iPad you could possibly buy just simply wouldn’t match. According to Bloomberg, however, those days might be over: the usual people familiar with Apple’s plans say that the company will launch a 9.7-inch iPad next month with a gold backplate. You know, in case your buying habits are governed more by fashion than new features.
