Engadget has the lowdown on the new iPad. The iPad 2S / 3 / HD (whatever its called) has a 9.7" retina display and a new processor that the company claims is 4x more powerful than NVIDIA's Tegra 3.
The 9.7-inch screen plays host to 3.1 million pixels in a 2048 x 1536 arrangement -- that's 264ppi. It's not just a higher resolution though, the screen also boasts improved color saturation. Of course, what would a new iPad be without some updated guts. The new model has an A5X processor and quad-core graphics chip. Apple even claims its newest sliver of silicon can deliver four times the performance of a Tegra 3 -- we'd say dems fightin' words.
In case you were planning on pre-ordering one of these, you should probably save your energy because the Apple store is currently down for the count. Thanks to [H] reader Doug F. for the heads up.
