Earlier today Apple has finally announced the next generation Ipad. After months of speculation on whether what the new version will be called, Ipad 2s, Ipad 3, Ipad 4g, or Ipad HD, Apple debunked all these rumored names and officially labeled it simply as “The new Ipad”, yes you read that right, “The new Ipad”. It’s name is simple, yet if you ask Tech4idiots, it has an obnoxious and seemingly arrogant tone to it. Mainly because its mostly marketed for those obnoxious arrogant Hipsters.

During the key-note I was really expecting Tim Cook to mention something about the Siri for the new Ipad, and eventually he did mentioned something about voice dictation but it was not Siri, and eventually it was confirmed that Siri will be absent for the new Ipad. The new retina display rumors were spot on and newer high definition camera for the Ipad is present. Aside from the unveiling of the new Ipad, Tim Cook has also announce the new Apple TV, which is now capable of 1080 Full HD video which is, with today’s modern LCDs a nice upgrade.
