Cool features on the new iPad The next-generation iPad is available for pre-order now and lands on store shelves March 16. If you bought an iPad 2, which was released about this time last year, the question is, are the upgrades to the new iPad worth shelling out another $500-plus to buy one? If you don’t have a tablet yet or have the original iPad, the financial picture looks a bit better, although you’ll want to compare the new iPad to the competition from Android-based tab-lets. And is it better to save $100 and buy one of the now discounted iPad2s, starting at $419? Here are some of the features on the new iPad so you can compare for yourself:

The new iPad has a much-improved screen. Called high-resolution Retina display, it has 2084-by-1536-pixel resolution, or 3.1 million pixels, four times that of the iPad2. The new iPad has more processing power, with an A5X chip with quad-core graphics compared to the A5 dual-core processor of the iPad2, making it a gain for games and other apps that require more power than simply catching up on email or Facebook. The new iPad is also LTE-enabled, LTE being the new higherspeed networks rolled out in Canada already by the three major carriers, Telus, Bell and Rogers.

Like the earlier generation iPads, the new one comes in a WiFi-only version, that starts at $519, and WiFi and 4G (LTE) models that start at $649. The battery life stays the same at nine hours on a cellular data network and 10 hours if you’re on WiFi. It also has an improved camera. In the 4G/LTE version you can set up a WiFi hot spot on it, meaning you can use your iPad to link other wireless devices to the data network – a useful function particularly if you’re travelling and you don’t want to pay for a data plan for both your smartphone and your tablet.
