Apple plans to jump to 128GB iOS devices

A thorough inspection of Apple’s latest iOS 6.1 beta has revealed that Apple may be planning to introduce an iOS device with double the built-in storage of today’s highest capacity iPhones and iPads.

The news comes from iDownloadBlog, and notes the usual 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB partition keys are joined by a new 128GB designation in the iOS 6.1 BuildManifest as of the fifth beta, which began making its way to developers on Saturday.

The new partition padding itself does not necessarily indicate that Apple will release a 128GB iOS device, but it does show that the company may be considering the possibility.
