Now in its third generation, Apple's iPad is the stunning standard bearer for modern personal tablet computing, with some great features that are definitely worth sharing - read on!

REVIEW: The new iPad is very, very good. Let's not beat around the bush. It's clearly easily arguably the very best tablet on planet Earth right now, and while co-opetitors like Samsung have excelled with highly competitive Android Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Series 7 Windows Slates, Apple's new iPad raises the bar again for consumers - and Apple's lead over the competition - presumably just as Steve Jobs, Tim Cook and the rest of the iCrew planned it.

UPDATED: There is a suggestion and a perception out there that Apple is lying about its new iPad's 4G capabilities, when nothing could be further from the truth given a 4G-capable communications chip sits upon the new iPad's tiny motherboard.

If you've purchased an iPad 3, like me, and have been looking for Apple's promised new 'personal hotspot' feature, you won't find it - or at least, not yet.

Joining Vodafone and Optus in selling the new iPad on a range of plans is Australia's telco titan, Telstra, which will even be outmanoeuvring Apple in selling the new iPad from selected stores from 12.01am Friday 16, 7 hours and 59 minutes before Apple's own stores start officially iSelling!

In what will come as a great relief to those who probably thought they had to wait until 5pm on Friday to get the 'new iPad', Apple has surprised yet again by announcing it will go on sale at a bright and early 8am.

Vodafone's nearly completed 850MHz 3G network is ready to power Apple's new iPad, with the company eager to promote both the new network and the fact it will be offering Apple's 'new iPad' from March 16.

It's still 2012 and the 'new iPad' is yet to arrive at retail, but that doesn't stop us from issuing a list of Top 10 feature demands for the next 'new iPad', due to arrive in around twelve months from right about now.
