Tracy and Matt

Yesterday my new 3rd generation iPad (aka iPad 3) turned up via UPS. Of course the first thing I did with my new iPad is record an unboxing video for you all to look at!

In the video below you can see a quick tour around the hardware, a look at the smart covers and a quick look at the new retina display.

I have to say that the new retina display is absolutely awesome! Everything is so much clearer, fonts are sharper and the colour gamut seems to be wider. I am surprised though that, despite twice the resolution of the iPad 2 (2048 x 1536 pixels) everything is drawn on screen at the same size so rather than visit a web page and get twice the amount on the screen you see the same page and layout, just smoother!

Check out the video below:
