Wired on Applications to Demo at iPad 3 Release

Christina Bonnington at Wired suggests four applications Apple should demo at their unveiling of the iPad 3 in March to show off its new HD retina display: photography, games, textbooks, and video.  Nothing too shocking.

I'm still operating with an original iPad (that I, for some reason or another bought two months before the release of the iPad 2) and am perfectly happy with it for my use, which is mainly keeping PDF files handy for work while traveling and surfing the web for news stories when I don't want to lug my laptop around.  I don't have an iPhone 4 (actually have never had any iteration of the iPhone, still chugging along with a Blackberry Torch) so the greatness of the retina display may be lost on me at this point.  That said, a use like that of the MLB app as mentioned in the article might just be enough to get me on board with an upgrade down the road.  Until then, I feel like I should at least get a couple years use out of my device.
