The headphone jack itself would count as a mechanical part too I guess.

Home button on my 3G died, died on my last 4 and it's going on my current 4. Would hazard a guess it would have gone on my iPhone too if I hadn't turned it into a pile of broken glass.

Check out this iPad concept video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9s2oYUy_cVY&feature=player_embedded 
 
Supports many features the iPad will never likely get, but even still, its an amazing concept.

My home button, always fucks up on my phone, does my head in, sorts itself after a few days. 
 
Happens every 2 months or so, random as hell.

So they've stretched the display to full screen and allowed multiple iPad's to connect. 
 
I think that might just happen in the near future.

Bit of a gay name but isn't far fetched seeing as iPad apps are <name> HD

Calling it iPad HD is fair game. Calling the following one iPad 3 is idiocy and retarded.

What happens? The same as with every other of the thousands of products that use HD as either a name or description, I would imagine!? Fuck all...

I think if they're going down that route they will create their own 'uber HD' name as its technically higher res than HD like they did with the iPhone screen(Retina) like 'UD' (Ultra definition). 
 
They're about 5 years too late with the 'HD' name.

Uber HD already has a name though. It's called 4K. 
Of course, 4K only refers to resolution where as HD, originally any way, covered a larger extend. 
 
Not that any of that will shy Apple away from "inventing" their own standard...
