While the official launch of the 3rd Generation iPad isn't until March 16th, Vietnamese site Tinhte.vn has managed to get their hands on one of the new iPads and shot an unboxing video.
The video, of course, is in Vietnamese, but you can follow along pretty easily.
The 3rd Generation iPad launches officially on March 16th. Many readers have already received shipping notices for their pre-orders. While some may slip through the cracks and be delivered early, Apple typically requests shipments to be delayed until launch day.

you will notice the box is the same as the IPAD2 box... except the screen image is blue..
keep that in mind..... for if your at a store and the ipad's are behind glass, you will at least know its an ipad 3...
also, if your buying off of someone, make sure to check the box for the blue screen on the ipad... and I would also open it up and fire it up to make sure its a retina screen....
I can see some scams happening soon...

"Retina" on a MBP would not have to be double the resolution, clearly.
