because I am planning to buy a iPad 2/HD or whatever it is going to be called, and the rumors of a retina display are getting stronger, I was trying to find some nice 2048 x 1536 wallpapers.... but guess what, there are almost none XD, so thats why I am starting this new thread. post your 2048 x 1536 wallpapers here ;)
 
Nuttiest speculation-based thread so far!

Anyway, they'd need to be 2048x2048 to work in both portrait and landscape. :p
 
Haha ok, well I was able to find sone wallpapers, but at 2048 x 2048 it will be even harder xD, but this resolution is coming this generation or the next. And I think it will be this gen to absolutely destroy the competition!

OMG this thread is FAIL!!!
 
XD lol everybody thinks this is a bad idea, but I just can't wait for the new iPad so yeah, I thought it could be fun to share some wallpapers in the resolution we will hopefully see in the next iPad sorry if you guys think it is stupid ;)
 
I'll kick it off...

I still think you are being a bit pre-mature in creating this thread since nothing has been announced yet, and if you are only going off of rumors, then latest is that their will be no 2048x1536 resolution iPad just yet.

iPad 2 Unlikely to Have 2048x1536 Retina Display?
https://www.macrumors.com/2011/01/19/ipad-2-unlikely-to-have-2048x1536-retina-display/

Gruber believes that the iPad will eventually get this 2048x1536 and even claims there are prototype iPads in Apple's campus with this exact resolution, but seems certain the next generation iPad will not be that iPad.
 
And I think it will be this gen to absolutely destroy the competition!

Screen resolution at these levels will have very little effect on whether the competition is killed or not. That just doesn't affect the buying decision of enough people to seriously effect things.
 
lol :D i guess there is no harm in planning ahead. everyone just go with it, if we make the thread now then we won't have to make it in 2012... or 2013...

*shrug* we will need it someday anyways
 
Can't wait for the ipad2 to show off my lovely wallpapers :) come on apple...tell us when and confirm the res!!
