This is a losing battle for you.
From the professionals...
[QUOTE="DisplayMate"]
The new iPad has a virtually perfect 99 percent of the Standard Color Gamut (a 38 percent improvement over the iPad 2). The colors are beautiful and accurate due to very good factory calibration – they are also "more vibrant" but not excessively so or gaudy like some existing OLED displays," Soneira reports. "What makes the new iPad really shine is its very accurate colors and picture quality. It's most likely better and more accurate than any display you own (unless it's a calibrated professional display). In fact with some minor calibration tweaks the new iPad would qualify as a studio reference monitor.
Apple has taken the very good display on the iPad 2 and dramatically improved two of its major weak points: sharpness and color saturation – they are now state-of-the-art. Our lab tests and visual tests agree with Apple's claim that the new iPad has 'the best display ever on a mobile device' so we have awarded the new iPad the 'Best Mobile Display Award' in DisplayMate's 'Best Video Hardware Guide.' But there's more. The new iPad's picture quality, color accuracy, and gray scale are not only much better than any other Tablet or Smartphone, it's also much better than most HDTVs, laptops, and monitors… So we have also awarded the new iPad the 'Best Mobile Picture Quality Award.

You are welcome to ignore next year's iPad -- though you are foolish to do so.
Who the hell cares about "totally" accurate colors?? We are gamers dude not professionals, reasonably good colors is all you need for gaming, other features are much more important. Nobody in their right mind uses an ipad for professional photo editing.
What is the contrast of the ipad 3?? Yup a paltry 870:1. What is good for professional work doesnt matter squat for gaming. The ipad 3 would also judder just like every other LCD, motion smoothness is another vital feature for gaming which they didnt mention because they werent reviewing it for gaming. We on the other hand are talking about gaming here.
Bottom of the barrel brightness and given how reflective tablets are the ipad is still fail when it comes to outdoor performance.
The new Retina display does make a difference. The high resolution makes everything on the screen look smoother and more… natural. It's nothing short of impressive but we think they should've done something about outdoor performance too. A screen of such quality certainly deserved better.

Again middle of the road. You think color accuracy and pixel density make the best screen? Well maybe for some purposes but certainly not for gaming. Once the 1080p transformer prime lands and if it manages to retain the contrast and brightness of the current model then that would be the tablet screen king.
