You still have to calculate the positions of the interface and many other graphic operations on the cpu. Its unavoidable.

I did say it was a joke. But Samsung is the worlds largest NAND supplier and the only one that makes money in DRAM. So you should cross those of the list as something more than screen and chip. It is also one of the largest suppliers of batteries for digital products.
Anyway, I guess your point is that there is a lot more to an "ipad", and if you want to brand Samsungs capabilities "ipad" that's ok, but at the end of the day it''s looking more an more like this product is one where Samsung actually holds the cards.

You just named a bunch of companies that design and assemble. Apple does not assemble. It is fundamentally different.

If this is the same sensor as my current iPhone4, where is my 1080p and/or image stabilization features for my jail broken device?
I understand Apple reserves better specs for their newer products. But if you're using old parts I think it's a total sham if you don't at least properly explain why older devices with the SAME EXACT camera can't have any of these features.
The A4 is powerful enough if it's based on a cortex A9, so don't give me that excuse.

Apple knows how to move product
In typical Apple parlance, they provide just enough to allow room for a future upgrade and more sales.
Next iPhone will include camera improvements, paving the way for iPad 4 to inherit iPhone 4S technology. iPad 4 will likely boast more storage, universal carrier compatibility, and better front-facing camera. Even with these improvements it will lag behind the iPhone 5 in features.

No, it is pretty much the same thing in regards to assembly. Apple has input and controls on the manufacturing process. They also have limited oversight. Since they don't own the assembly companies, they just have limited actual liability and responsibility.
Anyway, the topic was components, not assembly. Apple and car makers both do not manufacture (most of) the components used in their products.
The Apple A4 is a Cortex A8. Not A9.
I'm guessing it's likely that the A8 wasn't powerful enough to compress 1080p even if the camera was able to capture 1080p. Kind of like how the original iPhone could make movies when jailbroken.... very badly.
