there's a rumor of office announcement today....

MS said a few weeks ago that we'd have to wait for news in the "coming weeks" about Office on iPad announcement. you'd think today would be when they do it....

It has 4x the resolution so it needs the quad core graphics to offer equal performance that you got on 1024x768 on the iPad 2

Hey, Miz...I know you came a few times and are giggling like a schoolgirl here, but, if you wanna PW about the glorious iPad...take it to Ramblings. Otherwise, knock it off.

So, I can play Crysis on this game at super high-res, yeah?




But, I'm guessing the big plus is the peeps who do photo editing get something even better...

I'm assuming that when you run an iPhone app on the iPad 3 that it'll use the retina graphics from iPhone4/s instead of iPhone 3g/s like the iPad 2 did

Sounds like it's going to be called iPad, just like the Macbook Pro is always called Macbook Pro.

A little strange they're talking about apps after theyve shown everything.

Usually it's like "quad core graphics" "let's look at how that looks in this app" "retina display" "let's see this app"
