<![CDATA[It’s a trap, or is it?]]>One that is pretty obvious, firstname@apple.com never mentioned the specifics of upcoming Apple product. It has always been:

Back in March 2011, I was told about “the next iPhone” but not iPhone 5 or iPhone 4S. Just like December 2011 when I was told about “the next iPad”.

Apple is that kind of company who would not call the next iPad by the name iPad 3.  Jokingly, I said that Apple should call the next iPad by the name iPad 2x because it features 2x pixel density. Almost everyone expect the next iPad to be called iPad 3. I personally think that Apple could have called it something different.

In addition to all that, firstname@apple.com did mention the double pixel density of the next iPad but never once mentioned “Retina Display”. I tend to believe that Apple will not call the next iPad display as “Retina Display”; for it is purely a marketing term.

All that I heard about the next iPad were carefully worded, leaving no traceable specifics.

We all will find out what it really is on March 7th, 2012.
