All video will look bad on it though because that resolution is higher then any video format. Just sayin'.
i still cant believe people fall for this crap every time. apple is such a fuckin joke. over priced. holding back tech to make a new "version" release every year.
let me guess it gonna be the IpadHD?

Wow. They out did half a decade old gaming consoles. Golf clap. How about battery life? Bluetooth controllers? Shutting down background apps while gaming so we can use that memory? Wtf do I care? My wife will get one and I will play the new infinity blade and wank off on m.cliphunter.com like I have with her last two.
Article about ipad with a corgi header... Dale I believe you may have surpassed Jim in predictability.
So it will cost $829 for a 64gig 4g iPad"HD".....holy fuck will that buy you a NICE laptop.
I want to see the results/tests of the "4x the performance of the Tegra 3" as that is a pretty bold and vague statement.
I also said awhile back that it was going to be A5X chips rather than A6 chips so yay me, cookie giving commence.

Im waiting for the resurrection of Steve Jobs and the IPad 4: Saviour Edition, so that i can join those that will be taken to TechHeaven via a secret APP only available to the devotees that can recite the true name of our Computer God that lives in a military underground base under the new Denver Airport.
Quad core tablets aren't new, See: Tegra 3. That high resolution display is, however. Most people won't be in a situation to notice it though. It'll be great for graphic and web designers where 300dpi is becoming a realistic target. The resolution won't sound that great when 4K resolution hits the mainstream market.
They're claiming 10 hours just like the last iPad. If that is true then I'm impressed. Especially with 4G enabled.

I'm sure the hardware will be awesome, because it's Apple. I'm also sure the software will suck, because it's Apple.
phew, thank god this thing isnt for gaming
With a 9 hour battery without doing a single thing, a price of at least 500 bucks, no controls
I suspect the same amount of support the ipad 2 got which was minimal.

The most interesting thing about this is that it illustrates that the TV HD standard resolution is crap, and is going to limit next gen consoles going forward. They won't be able to look as pretty as on this iPad, much less what comes out next year.
Meh, nothing revolutionary this time. Just a small bump in specs. My galaxy note has higher ppi than this thing. "4x the performance of the Tegra 3"... could we get some real evidence on that?
@jp007
It depends really and comparing to TV's is not ideal...no point in having a screen resolution of 10 bajillion if you can't even tell the difference.

Plus 4k TV's will be coming out this year anyways.

Stop bitching and buy it already minions! You're not fooling anyone, we know you want one, so start working!
@mix ...but that resolution is even more important on a TV of 40" or 60" or whatever than an iPad with it's relatively small screen. The DPI just gets smaller and smaller as we approach bigger sets, and the noticeable rough edges and line jaggies become more and more apparent. No amount of AA can compensate for a limitation in physical pixel size.
I think a lot of people underestimate the distance at which gamers sit from their TVs... Most people I know are front and freaking center when it comes to gaming, not 20 feet away...
I'm just saying apple has control over this, on this device, in a way home console manufacturers can't.

I have an iPhone, but I don't like apple. Even so, you got to give it to them. This is pretty rad. No way in hell I'm gonna spend that much money, though.

@jp007
Good points but I sit like 10-15 feet away and my 42" 1080p looks great, well, Blu-ray's anyways....lol
I am jumping on a 4k TV whenever they come out too..SAMSUNG!

Was wondering when you'd comment.
@Article
Prices kill me.. No matter how badly I want an iPad I can justify the price when it feels like I can get all the same and more from an equally priced laptop.. I really want to, but I just can't see the appeal yet.

They won't do it, but they really need to add a built-in interface for using a wireless controller for more "hardcore" games.
I hate touch controls unless it's the most basic kind of game.

@mix yeah the 4k TVs sound nice, at least if only to use as a desktop display. I use my 40" 1080 display for gaming on the PC in the living room. Should just be able to pick higher render settings for a lot of current games via options/config settings. Though, text is going to be a nightmare to read on that thing, as games never seem to want to scale those up with resolutions to keep it legible from the couch...
Damn, the iPad may actually be worth the hefty price tag this time around. Its about time they add some damn features worth noting instead of ripping people off with crap. I can imagine all the people who just bought an iPad 2 crying in a corner.
