So which is it? iPad 3 or New iPad?

[Temp31]

Which do you think will catch on? The "iPad 3" or "New iPad"?

How about the New iPad 3.

I think the new iPad is perfect, works well for the MacBooks

I'm going to keep calling it iPad 3. Average person will get what I'm referring to than "new iPad"

Precisely, third generation apple iPad. We don't call it the MacBook pro, and MacBook pro 2, when there is an update/refresh. Neither do we refer to the iPod as and iPod 2 or iPod 4. Apple is attempting to turn the iPad into a device that is refreshed every year, but like their macs or iPods shall not be named or referred to by number (hopefully). Despite this time it being named the "new iPad" it is doubtful that they'd go for "newer iPad" nor skip iPad 3 altogether and call the next one "iPad 4". My prediction is that they will refer to the next iPad as just " iPad" (fourth generation). Because if you'd notice, behind every iPad (whether it's the original, iPad 2, or the new iPad) the logo is simply "iPad".

2012 iPad or 3rd Gen iPad. Note, there is a 2010 iPad (1st Gen), 2011 iPad (2nd Gen) and now the 2012 iPad (3rd Gen).
