After months of reporting on photos of iPad 3 screen parts, MacRumors finally obtained one for themselves and examined it under a microscope (http://www.macrumors.com/2012/02/17/confirmed-ipad-3-has-a-2048x1536-retina-display/), confirming that the new screens will have twice the linear resolution of the iPad 2, with a whopping 2048x1536 pixel density. Hints of the new display's resolution were found in iBooks 2 (http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/12/01/19/ibooks_2_still_contains_2x_image_files_hinting_at_ high_resolution_ipad.html), which contains hi-DPI versions of its artwork. The iPad 3 is rumored to be launching in early March.
