Rumor: Apple "iPad 3" to be iPad HD; release date: "soon"

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) is said to be readying the iPad 3, except it won't be called that -- the rumor is it'll be called iPad HD, thanks to its Retina display. And it still appears that the release date is this year. In IT Blogwatch, bloggers squint at their suddenly-unacceptably-low-resolution screens.

Our sources are saying that...there is going to be a new entry into the iPad family. ... [It's] said to sport a double resolution screen (2048 x 1536), and will be dubbed the “iPad HD.” ... [I]t will be a “pro” device aimed at a higher end market. ... This product is specifically said to not be the iPad 3, rather a complementary piece of the iPad 2 line. Think MacBook and MacBook Pro.

Apple reportedly plans to add a second manufacturer for iPad 3 tablet PCs...according to industry sources in Taiwan.
The new iPads will be launched at the end of the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter, noted the sources. 

While early iPad 2 rumors suggested a "Retina" display would be featured, the device instead shipped [with] the same 1024 x 768 resolution as the original. ... [A]ssuming sufficient tech would allow a 10" 2048x1536 display to be built for a reasonable price. The resulting pixel density...would be much sharper...and would allow older apps to be easily scaled...with minimal processor overhead and zero developer effort.
