Q: What is iPad (3rd Generation)?

Looking to use my iPhone to connect my iPad to the internet and I see a reference for iPad (3rd Generation). Is this the same as iPad 3? Will it not work with the current iPhone 4S and an iPad2?

iPad 2

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.

     

    Apple does not call the newest iPad the iPad 3. Other folks call it that.

     

    Yes, a Personal Hotspot provided by the iPhone 4S will work fine with the iPad 2. I have done this myself.
