iPad 3′s 2048×1536 Retina Display Confirmed

John Gruber of Daring Fireball has, perhaps mistakenly or not, confirmed in his complaint notes about iPad magazines the fact that the iPad 3 will have a 2048×1536 Retina Display:

These magazines and newspapers that render each “page” as a static 1024 × 768 image are going to look like utter ass on the iPad 3’s 2048 × 1536 retina display.

Unfortunately, there is no timeframe given to this and with some expecting a Fall upgrade and others putting the release update as far out as next March, we’ll have to wait and see.
