The rumors have been finally answered: The iPad is here!

 

The iPad is basically a touch-only netbook that looks like an enlarged iPhone. Now, if it were up to me, I would try to make it look/feel like a Macbook, but they drifted towards the iPhone look, which should stay small.

The iPad features 6 different versions: A WiFi flavor with 3 different flash drive volume sizes (16GB, 32GB, & 64GB) and a 3G version with the same different flash drive volume sizes. It also features a new Apple chip dubbed ‘A4’ and no, it is not a piece of paper in Europe. The A4 is a new, energy efficient, processor just for the iPad, clocking in at 1GHz. It works with all of your apps that you have downloaded from the App Store, but there is a catch – Its rendered ratio is exactly like that of the iPhone/iPod Touch and you MUST scale that rendered image up to fit the iPad’s LCD screen. Now, this scaling of the image may or may not scale it on a raster level or vector level, that I cannot confirm.

UPDATE #1: It scales pixels up to 2x, so 200% larger pixels. It WILL be blurry and not sharp like iPad dependent apps.

 

With that being said, I have only ONE question:

When is this going to be jailbroken? st33lsn0w anyone?
