What about tablets? How does the iPad's 2048 x 1536 resolution work out in the real world? I assume web sites don't appear in a 1:1 pixel ratio, or a 960 pixel wide site would appear tiny in the browser.
I use the 960 grid from http://960.gs/ when I build a site, and I find that sites on my 1680 x 1050 monitor look great at 960 pixels wide.
I would assume that sticking with a 960 pixel wide grid is still optimal, but I'd love to hear people's points of view.
It still identifies as 1024x768 and will look just like it does on the previous iPads (albeit with sharper text). It's just like how the iPhone works the same regardless of retina.
