Wait a sec... they're calling it 'The New iPad'?

Apple's first paragraph describing The New iPad includes these choice statements, "Brilliant. In every sense of the word."  "You're actually playing the piano"  "Nothing comes between you and what you love." .....  creepy.

Quick Run down: The NEW iPad 4G LTE

+ Best display you've ever seen in your entire life, as if that's going to mean anything in 3 months when they start creating the 4K screens.

+ 4G LTE connectivity... finally.

+ There is also AirPlay, which allows you to watch movies on your TV. WHOOOPY


From all acounts, it seems like the only thing that makes The New iPad new is the display. Apple has designed a new way to construct an LED screen that seperates the LEDs from the electrical connections so that no electro-magnetic spill-over affects the wrong LEDs in the areas that are being lit up, which would cause blurrieness and miscoloring.  See pic below.

                                                That's actually it.                                              THAT ^  is what's new.


You may also be hearing the term Retna Display being tossed around like a secret government technology that Apple got it's hands on. But no, it actually just refers to the above display.

Another step-up, but nothing amazing, is the 4gLTE upgrade. But my Sprint phone has had 4g for a little over a year now and why would Apple give The NEW iPad 4G LTE but not give it to the iPhone 4s? It's shockingly rude to their customers.
