doesn't the 15" MBP have an all glass display? like with black borders? The one in the background looks like an Air with MacBook Pro written down the bottom
Thats the antiglare MBP. No glass.

Actually not only do the computers most people use have a screen res that is less than that but also screen resolution in no way determines how useful this ipad will be at all. The ipad 2 was just as useful as the new one and this will have a higher density than the ipad 2 did. There is nothing you can do on the new ipad that you couldnt do on the 2. Text being blurry makes it no less useful, in fact it may come as a shock to you but I am typing this message just fine on a 21.5" iMac that has a density of 102PPI and is actually more useful than even the high res display iPad LOL
Apple doesn't do "Second best" and they don't target other companies people.
They create their own markets. Haven't you noticed?
Didnt SJ say that the perfect size for a tablet was the current 10" size?
The Nexus 7 is a proof of concept and demonstrates there is a serious market demand for a 7" tablet.
Google has done the market research; now Apple will eat their lunch.
Until Eddie Cue showed him a Galaxy Tab and convinced him otherwise.
We need to move past what Steve Jobs said or what he "might have" said - it's tiring.
I might have missed the thread, but how come no one mentioned this? If you do the math,
2048x1536 pixels of the latest iPad is 264ppi at 9.7'. Which just happens to be exactly 326ppi at the rumored 7.85'.
What are the odds? This way Apple addresses everyone's concerns about a new resolution while also making the iPad ppi exactly the same as the iPhone ppi.
Steve Jobs said that 7" was a bad size. The iPad mini is 7.85". It seems like 7" would be too small, but I've never used a 7" tablet.
I don't think this is a mock up at all.
It's a regular iPad, and the guy in the video just has super small hands.
a downsized ipad, with that same old grid of icons...yawn.
Bring us some innovations.
Just ship the bloody thing, it will sell like every other iDevice, in vast numbers.
What it _won't do_ is cannibalize the full size iPad sales to any great extent. If anything there will be droves of people like me that buy both.
I've been waiting a long time for Apple to get with the program and build one this size.![]()
