The new I've head.

Officially in stores tomorrow and Walt Mossberg is calling it the king of all tablets.

He says that it's good enough for us and guess what -- here -- studio which were thrilled about for this week's all things digital.

Technology columnist and Wall Street Journal and you have the new iPad of course I have this'll.

The sole piece of junk over here this but that -- had to do that's like six months so I don't wanna talk I don't know totally out of typically -- with that.

Man of my stature so what give us a lot on here so alright he could see looks a lot like -- It.

Basically what apple did here was to take.

The most successful tablet and this one must phenomenally successful products.

Anyone's -- last couple of years and basically.

Massively improved the two most important pieces of that they didn't as you can see totally redesigned a report a hundred new features in game.

Worked on the two biggest things one the screen because really all the -- is a flat window into.

Stuff you get mostly off the Internet -- so the screen MS has.

Four times the pixels as the screen on that.

Four times.

And means every.

Little microscopic place where this -- welcome with the where there's a pixel -- They put four.

In the same steps that there's one there actually not this over.

And the other thing they did was to work on the speed right.

So.

They both have Wi-Fi but if you optionally decide to get cellular this now has four GL TE.

Which is.

In my tests average seventeen may have that's a second that mean like Wi-Fi dance like why it's hot it's faster than if you went to Starbucks and connected to Wi-Fi.

It's faster than the average Americans.

Wired home Internet connection and there -- other companies devices on LTE but.

You know.

Putting in -- a tableau like this with this much richness.

Is amazing and here's the key.

They did -- this both both of these things the higher screen resolution and the faster cellular.

Really really eat battery life right and yet in my test it's still ten hours it's pretty dead and that's hours better than anybody -- -- a little bit -- that's little bit way that's the trader you can you can feel it and see.

It's a limited appeal to a bomb it is it's you don't like well I doubt I think it'll still lighter than I could -- -- think this difference helped design is almost.

It's there but it's -- it's there not not huge series then they'll Brecher let me ask -- -- -- America's let me ask you this is if you've heard this from other people's -- -- bought that uneven -- remember -- -- -- like a year ago or so.

And I pay because its three G what what what I paid like 700 years you know could -- You've got her how much like every artist -- are much ma'am right but and this -- -- for the same price but it's a decent amount of money I -- of -- amount of money on is there enough here for the average person to publicly because I'm thinking and I don't know it's a great question.

I think if you have an the original iPad.

Or somebody else's -- what the you're not crazy -- don't have the tablet right this is this is a fantastic -- -- -- Personally use my.

Act had all the time primitive.

His head and I would like what was the net book -- and laptop girl.

Not anymore not anymore anymore and a tonight all in my bedroom -- with.

I think you -- these the Altec until all they -- if they are all everything under the didn't -- do you think.

But.

So if you have those things adding it's no brainer if you have an iPad two what I wrote.

And in the -- morning was.

I wouldn't.

Say that you have to feel -- to Russia and get this with two exceptions if he used it.

Heavily isn't.

Debt in May be worth it for you and the other one is if you use it heavily when you're not Wi-Fi.

If you're depending on cellular the speed.

In my tests seventeen times as fast I'll talk seventeen times so if you're out.

On the rotor you know on the back seats of taxis or.

You know.

Anywhere else where you're not on -- That's a huge -- talk about your screen epiphany -- pull up like a photo may be about when you you really what was actually might Tiffany was text.

But it could be a photo.

Our Texas contest but so to really.

Different -- we have an iPad two -- this is actually a loner from apple and I'm gonna have to send back.

But.

I put them.

You know -- five minutes before the I got this I was reading some -- -- had to look perfect -- great.

And then I put it next to -- -- suddenly look -- although I certainly you could see all the letters.

Looking Fuzzy because -- -- can tell -- and I'm sorry that it doesn't show up well on camera.

Our private conversation there yeah but take our word for it and when it's look at this I -- even might double tap to expand this this is just what.

You can read that tiny test it with my bad vision -- it's a -- battered this is.

But to keep market able to -- on television -- much you've got to look at it on that he's literally half dollar look at and make your own decision but take.

Stop by more often long and and by the way a million more pixels on this.

Then on your high Def TV that's is actually a really dear sixty -- I'd get TV.

This has a million more what is that the we have been we have high Def TVs all the place one behind you and and -- so it's better than these TV's.

-- while mean it's not as big but I know of a million as a hard to believe that that's but here's the here's the great thing that I learned today right -- -- aren't our real.

Your real I'm compared with you what do you mean by real -- outlook not good.

I don't know -- explore different O'Connell a challenge finding especially not well thought out and bigger could that second at this.

Second or third ranked in the bill just so you won't mention just wanted to could I wolf great to see you create sleazy back home they -- -- -- -- -- --
