They haven't stalled. This is going to be the case with most phone and tablet updates from all manufacturers for a while now, I suspect. What innovative new features are there to include?

Like the Iphone 4s and now this Ipad they seem to add a few updates and that it is all and then ship it out. If another company did this it would be half arsed. I have had a Iphone 3 and 4 and was due an upgrade but absolutely no sense in getting a Iphone 4S as it was a basic upgrade from the 4. Same way this Ipad 3 is very underwhelming . |

they've not mentioned wifi only versions. They mentioned 3 price points $499,$599,$699.
WiFi + 3G (& 4G LTE in the US) is $629, $729, and $829, the same as at the moment. |

*think* so. Can't really tell from the photos and there's been no mention of a change in functionality.

Im not fan of iProducts yet, but ive watched a presentation a bit.
exact name of iPad still not confirmed yet. I guess, its called iPad New. Retina screen, nice stabilisation, good cam(why on earth do we need cams on tablets), this is all i wanted to hear, nothing else. Also, iPad can destroy PsVita. |

Which other tablet has a display of 2048 by 1536 or more?
When the iPhone retina display came out it was way above anything else. This just doesn't seem overly impressive for a model that won't be changed for a year. |

Certainly a fair bit of the presentation seemed to be aimed at the gaming market - "it has more ram and higher resolution than Xbox or PS3"
Gaming on the iPad is great for certain games but i hate on screen analogue sticks so games like Fifa are better on the Vita IMO. |

Didn't Jobs say it has to have over 300ppi to be retina? But then it's just a word, whatever they called retina is retina

I think next Apple product launch, I may try a drinking game on every "amazing", "mind-blowing" "incredible" etc. They do over-egg it a tad, I reckon I'd be pissed in 10 minutes.

![]() The iPad is generally going to be held further away from your eyes than an iPhone, and so the ppi does not need to be as high. But yes, it is just a marketing term they invented

The concept of 'beaming' stuff to other iOS devices is innovative.

To answer it, none are, this is an industry leader like the original retina display was.

1920 x 1200 announced already on the Asus pad 700 so the iPad is ahead but not earthshatteringly so.

Was a bit confused because stuart_h said the retina display was nothing new on a tablet.
