I clicked who cares, but probably more like 1, 2,3, 4, 5

If there was a place to click to TERMINATE another silly thread like this, I would have clicked that.

Now, here are the important questions that need answering:

1 - What color should my kids get?

2 - How many 64gb Verizon units will New York City have at 4pm saturday?

3 - What time will my brother need to arrive to get in line?

4 - Which is better, Mini or Air?

5 - What is coverage like in Orlando with Verizon as I am going to visit my uncle next month?

6 - What size ipad should my sister buy?

It's not a silly thread. It's simply a thread with a poll on it, and I always question everything. If you don't like it, go find another thread.

I REALLY want to answer the Official Apple way, but your answer is incorrect, the actual way is, iPad, iPad 2, New iPad, iPad w/ Retina Display, and iPad Air! :p

Ipad 3 and Ipad 4 were both known as 'the new ipad' and 'ipad w/ retina display'... They launched the ipad 4 the same way as ipad 3, calling them both 'the new ipad', and ipad w/ retina was the designation given on the store.

The refurb store has this in their navigation:

iPad - 2nd generation
iPad - 3nd generation
iPad - 4th generation

Then within the links

iPad2 : iPad 2
iPad3 : iPad
iPad4 : iPad with retina display
