Numerous online tech outfits are saying that the new iPad won’t be
called the iPad 3, and instead will be coined the iPad HD. The news
comes to us via several credible tech blogs and sources like Mashable,
VentureBeat and CNET. Tie that in with an earlier report of parts
listing the new iPad as the HD from accessory makers Belkin and Griffin,
then you have a pretty good case when it comes to the naming
convention. The HD name also makes a lot of sense, especially in the
light of the most oft repeated rumor that’s been circulating – that the
new device will have a 2048 by 1536 resolution screen that trumps nearly
everything else currently in the market. We also think other features
that the rumor mill has been circulating – like LTE for instance – won’t
make an appearance in this iteration, simply because there’s too few
countries and territories using the next generation cellular technology.
We’ll know more later today, once the company officially launches the
device in the US later tonight.
