Return it?
Woner what small vast improvements the ipad 3 will have.

Well it's rumored to have a new HiDPI screen. iPad 1/2 screen was 1024x768 resolution. The new one is supposed to be 2048x1536 effectively doubling the resolution and making things much more sharper, like text, etc.
Besides that stuff like faster CPU/GPU, better camera,etc. These are still rumors of course although prototype screens have gotten out.

Resolution is pretty damn important. A lot of old timers (like my parents) use terrible resolution on their computer screens (I assume because they like bigger text and maybe easier on their eyes) but I love pumping my screen resolution almost to the max. Sometimes I pump it up too much where the text is just too small so I gotta back up a little.

Well in this case it's more about making everything sharper as the display should be the same physical size. For example, take a look at an iPhone 3g/3GS screen and then look at an iPhone 4/4s screen and you can see everything is much sharper and clearer on the 4/4s screen which has double the resolution of the 3G/3GS screen.
This is the equivalent of the iPad getting a "retina"-like display like the iPhone 4 did.
