Well not enough to make me fork out yet another 400 quid. I agree I don’t really notice that much difference between the 2 and 3 screens. Well not enough to make me fork out yet another 400 quid.

I've bought my wife an iPad 2. The only advantage an iPad 3 would have is the display, but to be honest, after day to day reading, you stop noticing the difference between iPad 2/3 screen. For every day things, there's nothing beneficial that the retina display will bring me.Wife's happy with the iPad 2. Me? Although I'm not keen on iOS, I'm jealous as I own an ASUS Transformer (not the Prime) so it's just a heavy fat slab next to it :) The biggest advantage of iPad 3 is the knock-on effect it have had on the iPad 2 prices.

If I knew the name, I'd love to tell you. Sadly it was about as unimaginative and forgettable as they come.So far the tablet scene in general, save for the iPad, has left me wanting. The hardware is fine for the most part, but the app support just isn't there yet. There is so much potential they just haven't tapped into.Hopefully I can get my mitts on a review unit of some sort myself. I'm actually really looking forward to a great tablet computer besides the iPad. Unfortunately, nobody seems to know how to make one right now.

Also, based upon the photo it is still taller than the iPad Making things like Tablets thinner is great and such but surely you lose rigidity and thus makes them more fragile.

I have used a few Android tablets but there are none I like but I hope that ICS will solve that. I am awaiting a demo unit of the new Toshiba tablet which should be sporting it.

(I already have an Android tablet...biggest factor I prefer the Android tablet that is often overlooked - with ICS, buy an app, use it on any device, phone or tablet. No separate apps required. I bring that up because my wife is complaining about having to buy the same apps again (iPad versions) Or use the fact that there’s an iPad 3 out pushing down the cost of an iPad 2 to grab yourself a nice tablet at a lower cost.
