I've played with haptic feedback in a Lexus, and it is SO much fun! It gives you the most barely perceptible feeling that you physically moved from one button to another, even though you're sliding a cursor (or in this case a finger) smoothly along a flat screen. Way cool. :thumbsup:
The invite, sent to Mashable along with other media organizations, is full of the sly clues that Apple likes to include in invites to major announcements.
The tagline is almost always a dead giveaway for the focus of the event. The tagline in this case: “We have something you really have to see. And touch.”
The “see” part seems self-explanatory. But what about that second line, “And touch?” Is Apple planning on enhancing the touch screen itself? Is the company bringing haptic feedback to the iPad?
Just for fun, let’s attack this thing like it’s the Zapruder film. Do you see any clues hidden in the invitation? What do you think Apple will announce at its iPad event?
Check out the comments to see what people are guessing.
MacRumors obtained a display purported to be the same that will be used in the iPad 3. The panel appears to be the same physical size as the display used in the iPad 1 and iPad 2 but looking at the display under a microscope showed that its pixel density is double that of the older devices.
That would mean the final resolution of the iPad 3 will be 2048×1536, twice the linear resolution of the iPad and iPad 2.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
I might be willing to deal with Sharia law if I get haptic feedback.
