Apple iPad 3 could be called the iPad HD

Could the latest version of Apple’s iSlate be ditching the numbers for a whole new moniker?

The long-rumoured retina display-toting iPad 3 could in fact be called the iPad HD, if allegedly leaked accessory part listings from Griffin and Belkin dug up byGizmodoare to be believed.

Apple’s next generation retina display is expected to sport a1080p-trouncing 2048×1536 resolution, which would more than justify the rumoured Apple iPad HD name change.

Rumours of an7.85in iPad Minihave also been making the rounds, so the possibility of an iPad Mini HD label is also on the cards.

As always, we recommend taking such speculation with a pinch of salt as nothing will be certain until the dust has cleared onMarch 7, the date of Apple’s iPad 3 launch event. Or should that be iPad HD event now?
