Skype updated for new iPad's Retina display, but it’s not about the video
The new iPad’s 2048 by 1536-pixel Retina display is a big deal for some, not that much for others, but technologically it’s a huge and important leap improving the overall experience and text readability in particular. VoIP application Skype is one likely candidate that will benefit from it and it just got updated with new graphics and overall looks to match the new iPad realities.

Now, let’s make it clear - this is just about the looks of the application itself, and not the transmitted videos. The iPad still has a not-that-great front VGA camera and we could only wish it could push 1536p video. That could be too daunting a task even for the newly born 4G LTE netwokrs. So this latest update to Skype isn’t about that, but it still shows the team’s commitment to the iPad application.
