Here’s some of what we like: The iPad physically looks almost identical to the iPad 2, but it’s a shade thicker and a bit heavier. The hallmark feature is the 9.7" Retina display that provides 3.1 million pixels total (1536 X 2048), four times more than the iPad 2 and one million more than HDTV. Couple this with the new quad core processor and a new operating system, you get a sharper, more colorful photo display, smoother video, movie and gaming displays, sharper text and improved Internet browsing.
Also new: a dictation feature that’s active with any app requiring keyboard entry. Just tap the Microphone Icon, speak, and iPad types. Major cool.
The forward-facing camera is also greatly improved. Video is now offered at 1080p HD and is amazing when viewed on the iPad's screen or, using an optional HDMI connector, on your TV screen. And--the iPad still has the features that made iPad 2 so popular: such as a GPS locator, Bluetooth connectivity, motion detector, contacts, calender, multi-touch swipe navigation and the like.
There are two basic configurations for iPad: WiFi only or WiFi + 3G/4G, each with a choice of three memory capacities: 16GB, 32GB or 64GB (Photos, videos, music, movies and apps tend to accumulate so--think carefully about intended usage.) iPad prices range from 16GB WiFi only at $499 to the 64GB WiFi + 3G/4G variety at $829.
We love our iPad for the new display, faster processor, improved camera and new operating system. Check it out!
