I'm impressed that you can see the screen quality difference in a video. I really didn't think you'd be able to tell that much through a camera.
Got a tip for us?

Waiting for Friday....
So another 2012 iPad is in the wild, while mine has been sitting at a Fed-Ex station in Pennsylvania for several days now on hold until final shipping on Friday. Why does Apple have to keep such a strangle hold on the release even for pre-orders?

Wow you can't even post your honest opinion here anymore. I don't leave home with my 17in macbook, I have a 13in for that. And like it or not, it is hard to use an iPad lying down for an extended amount of time.
iPhone with a bigger screen = still much lighter than iPad doofus

Why would they? Supposedly the CPU is pretty much the same one as in the iPad 2, as far as specs go. If anything, apps will open a little slower, since it will take longer to load/process the higher-resolution assets.
I really wish they had done a comparison of the Mobile Internet load times comparing the 3G iPad vs. the 4G on the new iPad. I imagine that if you are in good range of a 4G LTE tower, the internet speeds on this new iPad should be incredible....this is really faster than a cable modem? I have a hard time believing that the iPad will be able to load data at over 2 megabytes per second but that would be incredible.
As it is, the 3G on my original iPad (2009 model) is pretty slow, so that is why I was wondering how the speed is on the new 4G LTE modem on the new iPad.

while I agree with you, I think he meant from watching the video that it looks slightly faster and was asking if anybody else had noticed the same thing.
I don't know anybody that is unhappy with their Playbook. It does everything I need it to do (ebook, movies and browsing) very well, sometimes better than the iPad.

The doubled RAM could make a small difference.
Oh. I didn't watch the video. The music put me off and I couldn't stomach watching a 360 pixel high video about a device that can put out 2k.
It's possible the 1GB of RAM in the new model allowed it to resume from cache quicker.
Does anyone know how the new iPad will handle older iPad apps?
Meaning are they gonna be blown up to to size or will they be a smaller box in the middle of the screen like when you use an iPhone app on the iPad?
Will there be some sort of filtering or anti-aliasing involved? Somewhat similar to how a Vita can do for old PSP games?
Or does everything that's not updated just look like ass mold?
Just curious if that's been discussed. Either way, my new iPad arrives Friday

They will be upscaled so blown to size. Recent comments suggest that it does not look too bad.
But besides that, no new filtering of any sort.
i think the iPad may sill be thinner than the iPhone, especially if it's where the bevel is. don't quote me but i think they just recently made a 5mp camera thin enough to fit so maybe the 8mp isn't yet?
Meh. Impressed but I'd rather see this tech in new displays rather than a small device. C'mon Apple, how about offering a top notch dedicated display line as you once did with 20", 23", 30" CCFL LCD's and not just a stripped down 27" iMac LED LCD? As it stands, I can barely get the cables on your current display to reach my Mac Pro. I can't even use the Thunderbolt 27" display on my current gen 5,1 Mac Pro as there isn't an option for Mac Pro users, but another new new iPad. Yeah.
