Nope, it’s not the iPad3, rather, simply the new iPad – Apple today introduced the new iPad®, the third generation of its category defining mobile device. I’m hearing buzz that iPad 2 will be dropped in price to around the $399 mark – very nice! Some of the new functionality and features:
- Retina display – four times the number of pixels of iPad 2 + 44 percent increased color saturation
- Apple’s new A5X chip with quad-core graphics – a fast, responsive user experience
- 5 megapixel iSight® camera with advanced optics – Backside illumination allows you to take great photos in low-light and there’s enhanced image stabilization
- 1080p HD video
- iPad with Wi-Fi + 4G connects to fast networks worldwide, including AT&T’s and Verizon’s 4G LTE network – Wi-Fi + 4G with built-in next generation 4G LTE, including HSPA+ and DC-HSDPA, and now both CDMA and GSM
- 10 hour battery life
- iOS 5.1 – features redesigned Camera app with video stabilization technology; the ability to delete photos from Photo Stream; support for dictation in English, French, German and Japanese; Personal Hotspot and iTunes® in the Cloud
- Support for the new dictation converts your words into text – Dictation also works with third-party apps, so you can update your Facebook status, tweet, or write Instagram captions.
