Retina display, SD and USB card reader, iPhone 4 (or better) cameras, both with photon streams (didn't want to confuse anybody by using the F-word), all without sacrificing battery life.

I have to agree with this. I have a first generation iPad so it probably wont take much for me to upgrade, but I really want Retina Display and a USB card reader the most. Better cameras are most likely going to be included, and a SD card reader would be nice, but not needed for me. I just don't see how they can include all of this without sacrificing battery life. :( Knowing Apple though, I'm sure they'll find a way! :)

If the iPad 3 came with cellphone capability, I would go for it. I just can't get past having to pay for two data plans (iPhone and iPad).

Exactly! I only recently got my iPad 2 and just went with a 16gb. Plan is to sell this one and go with a larger size iPad 3 when it comes out.

@perpulhaiz...iPad 3 will be larger how? Screen or processor? Do tell.

I think he means more memory for his next iPad! I doubt Apple will increase the size.

I'm going for a LESS memory when I upgrade. This 64 GB is excessive. 32GB will be more than enough for me.

Agreed, though a big-screen iPad would be hilarious.

Yep. Thats what I meant. 32 gb will probably be what I go with as well.

I love my iPad!!! Now since I only bought wifi a neat trick is if I can figure how to enable a android app hotspot without giving Verizon more money!!! They told me if I upgraded my data plan I can acess the Internet using my Droid but I'm not sure what battery I'll drain first!!.,

That is a problem. I'm still using my Palm Pre for a hotspot because it is the only phone where the hotspot is free. One battery lasts about 2.5 hours with active use so I usually take a spare battery with me. (It also causes the phone and battery to overheat but that is a different problem.)

Verizon and I will be parting ways unless another deal (like the Palm Pre hotspot) surfaces before the iPhone 5 arrives at Sprint. I'll probably get a myfi for a personal hotspot at that time. It just doesn't make sense to pay $30 extra monthly to make a cellphone hotspot where Myfi can be had for about the same price with more data.
