Call it what you like. Whether Apple officially call it the iPad 3, the iPad HD or iPad George, everyone will call it the iPad 3.

Actually, no Siri, just the dictation part of it…but no command interface.

You guys are right, that part was unclear before and I’ve updated the story. We’ll try to follow up specifically on the chip angle.

It’s not a quad core chip, considering everyone thinks about “dual core” or “quad core” when they mean the CPU. If it were a quad core, then we’d be calling the Galaxy S2 with its quad core GPU a quad core phone, too, or we’d be calling Tegra 3 tablets, 12-core tablets. But we don’t, since most people refer to the CPU, and for good reason, considering it’s the most important part of the chip, handling the vast majority of tasks.

I think that it is still an open question whether the chip is quad-core. Apple said quad-core graphics which sounds like the GPU. That makes it likely that the CPU is a dual-core. It’s an improvement but Apple used a bit of marketing obfuscation to confuse the debate.

Why the hell not call it iPad 3? Who cares…
