A year and five days after the iPad 2 launch event, Apple has hosted another big gathering in San Francisco to introduce the next generation of its popular tablet. Dropping the numerical titles, 2012's version of the device will simply be called "iPad," although "iPad HD" may be a more fitting way to think of it since it quadruples resolution to a Retina display level: 2048 x 1536. There have also been upgrades to the camera and GPU, the addition of LTE connectivity in the US, and a fine assortment of new app updates and introductions in the new iPad.
