The iPad HD -Is it coming?

When the first iPad was being developed it was designed to do everything a laptop and a smart phone could do, but better. Everyone was wow’d by the iPad and then the iPad2. Now another iPad is rumored to come out sometime in the fall. It’s shocking everyone because of the comment from Apple CEO Steve Jobs in 2011 “The year of the iPad2,”.

Before the rumors about the iPad HD were first heard, most people thought Apple was going to save the retina(?) that was being developed for an iPad 3, since they are already dominating the tablet market this quarter. Rumored to be released in September, the iPad HD won’t be the iPad 3 but simply an upgrade from the iPad2. It’s pretty much going the same concept as the Macbook and the Macbook Pro. Not a lot is going to change, except for the major upgrades in the resolution. With two times the resolution of the iPad 2 (2048 x 1536), the new device isn’t predicated to be cheap. It will most likely be aimed at the higher-end market professionals such as:   photographers, video editors,  and artists.

With the iPhone 5 rumored for release in the fall, and the actual iPad 3 rumored to be coming in early 2013, Apple looks as if it will continue to dominate the markets. Another rumor is that the iPad 3, estimated to be released in early 2013, will have 3D capabilities.
