According to Ryan Block calculations, 9.7 inch iPad Retina display would exceed the capabilities of current mobile device technology.
330 pixels per inch (PPI) works on the iPhone 4 precisely because it's such a small screen. Each pixel must be rendered, and the Retina display packs 614,400 pixels at 960 x 640. The same processors are used to display graphics on the iPhone 4 and the current model iPad (the iPad display is 1024 x 768 = 786,432 pixels).
Converting the iPad display to a Retina display would result in a huge number of pixels, leaving graphics processing hardware completely overrun and done.
Macbook Pro 17-inch: 1920 x 1200 = 2,304,000 pixels
Dell 24-inch monitor: 1920 x 1200 = 2,304,000 pixels
Apple 27-inch Cinema Display: 2560 x 1440 = 3,686,400 pixels
Retina display for iPad 2 is possible if Apple come with new powerful graphic processor.
