    Apple has hidden the RAM Specs just like they hid the Camera Specs for the iPad 2. Something tells me this is not worthy of the name iPad 3.

          Another failure from Apple, Apple can cheap until not even plan to redesign the product.

          "The new iPad" is nothing special, the iPhoto do cool but that is just a software.

          Why "The new iPad" is nothing:
          - Same design
          - Same screen size, the higher resolution did absolutely nothing here beside need more powerful GPU to render on it. That why Quadcore GPU is attached.
          - Same old Dualcore CPU.
          - It just another slighly modification of iPad 2. Probably of this, they feel shame name it as iPad 3 as this are not.

          Boo! and shame on Apple.

            no wonder they didn't call it iPad 3, because its actually going backwards.

            Thicker and heavier...

            More saturation? iPhoto? Those are just software updates.

                14 commercial networks operating LTE in the 1800MHz spectrum across the globe are not supported by the new iPad. Why not. This is hardly rocket science. Remember there is a real world out there and not everything revolves around just the USA.

Retina display should be the same no matter how you hold it. According to you, now, i can upgrade my Galaxy S II to Retina display, by holding it at 2m long.

                          Key element here is viewing distance! You are not looking your tablet in same distance where you look your phone.

                          Phone is much closer for your eyes, that makes the difference.

                          So yes it's still retina.

In spite of the fact that a subsidized iPhone 4s has the same subsidized price of $299 as all others. in spite of the fact that the Ipad is the same $499 as the original. Maybe android users just hate iTunes and prefer the simplicity of drag and drop. Maybe they like memory expansion. Maybe they like Bluetooth file transfer. Maybe they like USB connectivity, micro HDMI, quad core, etc, etc, etc....You could be right about one thing....you are just a fanboy.

                                      Ok Apple is just making fools out of all its iFans now. 1st they launch the iPhone 4 with the retina display and say 325 ppi and up is retina display tech. Now this is announced with just 263.92 ppi and they still call it a retina display smh. So let's be real Apple, admit that this 'retina' word means nothing and stop making your iFans look like idiots.

                                      If anyone knows otherwise please correct me.
