Checked my tracking again today like a madman. It has said picked up in Nashville, TN over the weekend. Though as of this morning, it is in Nashville, however it has an update that says "Future delivery requested." Damn you Apple, I want iPad NOW!

Benchmarks on Third-Generation iPad Reveal 1 GHz CPU, 1 GB RAM
Mar 13, 2012 6:11 am PDT by Eric Slivka
In addition to the just-surfaced unboxing video of the new iPad, Tinhte.vn also posts Geekbench benchmarks of the device, revealing that the device's A5X system-on-a-chip contains a 1 GHz application processor and 1 GB of RAM.
The new iPad received a total Geekbench score of 756, essentially identical to that of the iPad 2, although Geekbench only tests processor and memory performance and does not address graphics capabilities that are the focus of improvements in the A5X. The A5X offers the same 1 GHz CPU found in the A5, and bumps the RAM from 512 MB to 1 GB as had been predicted and suggested in leaked screenshots of a debug tool for the device.

Pretty much what was expected.

$9 Cheap ipad2 case that looks like it should fit the new ipad just fine
I meant to get this case as a "hold me over" until better cases come out, but surprisingly this case is very well built for the price I paid! I just bought my sister a $45 case last week for her iPad 2 and this case seems just as well built as that one

I want the 1080p
as much as I love my apple TV...and the HD is very good. I still still a big difference between it and bluray.
Im hoping this new apple TV will close the gap, and it will be nice to give my current to my in-laws.
