Apple Unveils New iPad
adeelarshad82 writes "As expected, Apple announced the new iPad complete with a Retina Display, quad-core processor, 4G LTE, and an improved camera. The new iPad will run the rumored A5X processor, which according to Apple will provide four times the performance of the Tegra 3. The revamped tablet will also include a 2048-by-1536 display, apparently the most in any mobile device. And finally with 4G LTE, the new iPad will provide up to 73 Mbps download speeds; partners for which include Verizon, Rogers, Bell, Telus, and AT&T."
Camp in line to receive the latest helping of mana!

I can just see it now. Taking home the new ipad3, turning it on for the first time, excited for the fast download speed and massive processor, and the first message that appears:
You have exceeded your bandwidth quota for the month. All network apps disabled

They have these things called "jobs." You should look into that.
Not any more. I'm surprised you didn't see the coverage. It was everywhere. I wish Dennis Ritchie had gotten as much.

please be ipad hd, please be ipad hd (registered ipadhdsucks.com)...
No pun intended, but it'd make a great thin client alternative to a laptop.
Consider you had a "case" that you could dock the iPad to that had a battery, keyboard, mouse, charger, and possibly speakers. Combine some VPN software and RDP/VNC and it'd be pretty sweet for the occasional traveler.
Okay, I get that, but is the display really made from retinas? And whose retinas were those?
That's just crazy talk.
EVERYBODY wants an American Girl doll.
Well, this is the best and biggest iPad they've made, so the obvious choice is - The iPad Maxi !
Slow down, cowboy! It has been 4 hours since you last posted. You must wait another few hours.
Foxcomm employees, haven't you been watching the news?

No, he works at Foxcomm. :P
Yes, but then you'd have to carry around two laptops.
Is it just my observation, or are there way too many stupid people in the world?
Hmm, I was going to post a jocular response, but then remembered that these are real people with parents and siblings committing suicide that we're joking about.
Well, it is an eyePad...
yes, we need EVERYONE to be content creators. because if there's one thing i learned from teaching guitar lessons for 5 years, EVERYONE is a rockstar.

You can easily get two laptops for the price of one iPad.
Heck, in terms of mass - with those two $250 laptops you're getting 10-20x the value in kilograms/dollar!

You're holding them wrong.

I dodged that bullet. My mom got my daughter and american doll with matching pony. My daughter could car less, but that wouldn't be very likely.
OTOH, she loves her model rocket, and is looking forward to this summers robot building project.
so, what I am saying is.. I Win.
