New Ipad should be ipad 4g
Today Apple released its latest tablet device--the new iPad--but while all of the improved features wooed bloggers, journalists and fans alike, one fact was left lingering in the minds of those that had closely followed the event: The name of the new iPad cuts against the grain of names previously given by Apple to its mobile devices.

The new iPad may have blown us away with its 2048 x 1536, 3.1 million pixel Retina Display, but its new camera--the 'iSight'--comes as a disappointment.

While the 5-megapixel backside camera is an upgrade to the previous feeble 0.8 MP camera of the iPad 2, it still has a way to go to meet the 8MP of the iPhone 4S.

The new iSight camera comes with a backside illuminated sensor, 5-element lens, IR filter, and ISP built into the A5X chip, which over all, gives it a pretty strong set up, but still falling short in comparison with its competitors--he ASUS Infinity TF700.

The camera also comes with auto-exposure and auto-focus, another two features that produce crisp clean images.

Another feature of the camera is 1080p video recording, which doesn't really come as a big surprise.

If one thing is certain, it's that whatever type of photo or video is taken on the tablet it will look great on the retina display.

Rumors have officially been confirmed; the new iPad comes with a 2048 x 1536 display, the most ever in a mobile device.

Until you see it you can't understand how amazing it is, said Phil Schiller in his presentation. For the first time an iPad has a higher resolution than the display screen used for the iPad presentation.

Schiller compared the new iPad to a 1080p display, at 1920 x 1080 display, saying the new Retina Display 264ppi comes with 40 percent better color saturation than before.

With the new display, the iPad will be seamlessly being able to display crystal clean photos and movies. With the iCloud upgrade, iPad users will be able to re-download purchased movies that now support 1080p HD.
