Apple is set to change the tablet game again with the iPad 3 – rumoured to feature a Retina Display that'll match the pin-sharp resolution of the iPhone 4S's screen.

Isn't it misleading to claim Apple invented tablet? I know you guys are pro Apple but still you need to be a bit balance or atleast be more objective in your claims or whatever you are reporting.

Apple didn't invent the tablet. Or the MP3 Player, or the Smart Phone. But they DID re-invent all of them, and turn them from lumbering, dull, unresponsive toys into sleek appealing and useful tools.

I was going to by myself an iPad 2 - should I wait?

When, if ever, would apple be likely to release the next version?

I guess this is why they're offering easy credit deals at the apple shop at the mo. Trying to shift the old stock before they refresh.

The one thingim interested in is whether or not they increase the storage of the iPad 3.
in this day and age of large media files more is needed than 64gb.
Either expandable storage via micro SD or a larger option, I'd love to see at least 128gb so we can store HD video to go with that nice sharp screen.

oh dear looks its looks like the lets slag of apple forum. well its clear to see apple have designed many devices over the years. i for one am very happy with my apple iphone.

So i can say, they are a good product. and well worth the money. people slag of apple as they generally jealous. so i say have a go on an a apple product, ipad/iphone/ipod. then you can really pass comment. based on fact not misguided conceptions.

How is this "the lets slag of apple forum"? Two people posted about how Apple didn't invent the tablet, which is true; one person isn't sure whether or not to wait for the 3; another person commented on deals being offered, a common business tactic just before a new release; and one person is expressing their hopes for increased storage in the new product.
Also, when did any of those people say that they hadn't used an Apple product before? I have used Apple products plenty of times, mainly iMacs, an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2, none of which I liked. The iPhone and iPad were really simple to use, but they didn't excite me at all and offered nowhere near enough customisation. The iMac (running Leopard) I found to be really awkward and unintuitive.

Why don't you learn how to spell and correctly form sentences before judging everyone and being so negative?

Well, now we know. The one detail that vexes me still, even after yesterday's presentation is the megapixel range of the camera on the iPad3? Everyone is trumpeting the 1080p video but I still haven't read any specifics on the quality of still photos. Is it the same as the iPhone 4s? Or better?
