Kevin Rose: iPad 2 announced in "next 3-4 weeks" -PC Magazine

Quote:
"I have it on good authority that Apple will be announcing the iPad 2 in the next '3-4 weeks,' possibly Tuesday February 1st.," Rose posted. "The iPad 2 will feature a retina display and front/back camera. If you're thinking of buying an iPad, hold off for now."
Retina display (as Apple currently defines it) seems hard to believe. If the iPhone 4 is 960×640 on a 3.5" screen, wouldn't a similar pixel density on a 9.7" screen be ridiculously high resolution? (There should be math here, but I'm too lazy) I'm not saying they can't make a 2560x1920 or whatever resolution screen, but wouldn't it require more than a system-on-a-chip type graphics processor?
