The rumored tablet is expected to feature a pixel-packed Retina display as its flagship feature, and the "HD" suffix could help differentiate it as a newer, higher-quality device."</em></p><p><img height="450" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1331053068.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" width="600" /></p><p>This does make sense, since something similar happened with the iPhone 4, but the only sure thing is that there is a lot of conjecture about what exactly will happen tomorrow. <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/new-apple-tv-2012-3?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed:+typepad/alleyinsider/silicon_alley_insider+(Silicon+Alley+Insider)" target="_blank">Apple TV refresh</a>? Also makes sense due to the supply &nbsp;<a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2012/03/06/almost-all-apple-stores-out-of-stock-of-the-apple-tv/" target="_blank">shortages</a>&nbsp;of this wonderful little device. How about an <a href="http://www.imore.com/2012/03/06/apple-rumored-purchasing-71-screens-smaller-ipad/" target="_blank">iPad mini</a>? Not so sure about that one, at least for this event. And a new one for today is the interesting <a href="http://www.cultofmac.com/150728/ahead-of-ipad-3-launch-verizon-hints-something-big-is-coming/" target="_blank">hint from Verizon</a> about "Something Big" coming. LTE perhaps? The one rumor that I really hope comes true is a <a href="http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2012/03/ipad-3-may-get-a-redesigned-smart-cover-on-wednesday.ars?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=rss" target="_blank">redesigned cover</a> for the latest iPad. I never really liked the smart cover due to the lack of back coverage, but the supposed new cover provides the protection. Whatever is announced, I'm just hoping I'm able to get an upgrade for my iPad original, since <a href="http://www.imore.com/2012/03/06/ipad-drive-massive-upgrades/" target="_blank">polls</a> are showing 74% of current iPad 2 owners are planning on upgrading. What are your thoughts on what will be announced tomorrow?&nbsp;</p>
