Apple has unveiled a new iPad with a high-definition screen.

It said the resolution of the display was 2,048 by 1,536 pixels. The tablet is also powered by a new A5X chip with improved graphics performance.

Guess they could rely off of model numbers, but still. There is a sea change. Peale want video that can take with them. The current technology makes it possible for about the same price you paid two years ago for something more ordinary.
