I'm looking forward for a lighter, thinner and Retina Display in the next IPad.
Somehow I don't see why a USB is needed though. |

retina display is pretty much out of the question for a device the size of iPad... retina display refers to having >300 ppi.. which works on a small screen device like iphone 4.. on a 9.7" screen, you need about 2560x1440 (http://members.ping.de/~sven/dpi.html) resolution capable screen to achieve that pixel density.
Imagine the processing power and juice needed to just drive the graphics on that screen... even desktop based cards have a problem when driving graphics at that resolution... Added on December 6, 2010, 3:27 pmMaybe we'll see retina display on larger devices in 2-3 years time.. but most likely not next year... The cost of manufacturing those screen itself is likely going to be crazy. High resolution screens is already the highest component cost on the BOM list...

after reading some your feedback;
wandering whether i'm doing a right choice buying ipad now. Planning to buy wifey an ipad today.. yet, on looking competitor's device spec in comparison; android tablet, playbook, etc. yes, apple just lacked a lot of thing, they will came up with improved version, which is ipad 2nd gen - with higher res, camera, HD-video recording, facetime, etc. So, now i confused. Wanna go for ipad 1st gen or just wait to see the trend |
