I beg to differ! If you are disappointed with the iPad 3 retina screen with four times the information capability of the iPad 2 screen then no screen will ever come up to your standards so be prepared for a lot of disappointment. Any screen advancement for tablets from this point will be only incremental.
It's already been shown that the iPad 3 screen is one of the most color accurate screens available now.
There will not be any four times increase to anything screen related for a number of years. When the 4K televisions start coming around in 2015 they will have just caught up to the iPad screen.
XDRoX said:I think you misinterpreted my intent. I love the new screen. It's amazing. But the resolution difference from the old screen to the new screen is not worth the price of upgrading IMO. I also think the old screen is stellar. I am by no means dissappointed in the new screen. It's just that if that's the only reason someone is upgrading I'm afraid they may be dissappointed. For the size of the ipad I believe the old resolution is completely satisfactory IMO.
Now if we want to talk color instead of resolution I'm amazed by the new iPad. The colors are unreal.
OK, let's quantify the discusstion please. Which was the largest leap forward?:
a. iPad1 to iPad2
b. iPad2 to iPad3
