[QUOTE="mmmagnetic, post: 14465, member: 558"] Just a warning: Once you actually tried the iPad 3 screen, no matter how happy you are with your iPad 2 now, it will suddenly look like Atari 2600 to you. The amount of pixels the 3 has is absolutely insane. All the tables look super clean and crisp, and you can read every single insert. Photos and text is another thing where this display shines. I had an iPod Touch 4th gen and was used to clear text, had a refurbished iPad 2 for a while and just couldn't take it. However - I still stopped playing the TPA on my iPad once I got my 360. The hi res is very nice, but with the lack of proper lighting it just has a quite sterile, flat look to it. And I personally have pretty suddenly fallen out of love with touch controls. so I use my iPad mostly for browsing, watching photos and videos, and the occasional digital boardgame with my girlfriend. If you had no ipad and where going to buy one anyways, yeah, iPad 3 would be a no-brainer. If you're still happy with your 2 and don't mind the pixels and want TPA on the go, you could also consider a Vita. The thing about the iPad is that you can be certain that there's always going to be a new model each spring. On the other hand, you could probably still sell the 2 for a decent price now, once the 4 is out the 2 might be too old. I'm on my iPad right now, I can post some TPA screens later. [/QUOTE]
