Breaking News: Apple Unveils new iPad

Weeks leading up to today's announcement of The new iPad, there were several different rumors swirling around the tech community trying to guess what it would be called, what new features it would have, and so forth. Well, no more guesses. It's not called the iPad 3. Not the iPad HD. It's simply...the new iPad.

The new iPad, which will be released on March 16th, will be priced at $499. (iPad2 will now be $399) Here's everything you need to know about it:

  • retina display
  • 5-megapixel camera (w/ same optics sensor from iPhone 4S)
  • 1080p video recording

So, what's so special about "The new iPad?" It will feature an amazing retina display w/ 2048 x 1536 pixels and 264 pixels in each inch (Source: Mashable) In more simpler terms, the new iPad will have 1 million more pixels than an HDTV. Now, that's awesome.

The camera is also updated as it will record videos in 1080p, whereas the iPad2 was in 720p.

Here's what Phil Schiller, Apple's SVP of worldwide marketing had to say: "It has the best mobile display that has ever shipped."

What do you guys think? Will you be camping out for this one or are you content with your iPad 2?
