Engadget - So,
what'd you have in the office pool? iPad 3, iPad 2S, iPad HD? Doesn't
matter, really. All that matters is that it's here! This is the next
generation of Apple's iOS slate and, as usual, she's a beaut. As was
rumored this thing is packing a
Retina display,
potentially making this the most pixel-packed slate on the market. The
9.7-inch screen plays host to 3.1 million pixels in a 2048 x 1536
arrangement -- that's 264ppi. It's not just a higher resolution though,
the screen also boasts improved color saturation. Of course, what would a
new iPad be without some updated guts. The new model has an
A5X processor
and quad-core graphics chip. Apple even claims its newest sliver of
silicon can deliver four times the performance of a Tegra 3 -- we'd say
dems fightin' words.
