PadGadget is reporting that that several App Store titles that are iPad-specific applications have begun to appear in Apple’s web-based iTunes Preview listings. The only difference is that these titles carry a “XL” or “HD” designations.
We did a quick scan and were able to find several titles clearly marked as “HD”, a common label developers are now using to indicate an iPad specific version of their app. HD is not a universal title for iPad apps, some developers are instead choosing “XL” to denote their iPad version or simply creating a universal build so that both the iPhone and iPad versions are contained in a single app. There are probably many more titles in the database that have been approved by Apple for the iPad that we haven’t yet stumbled upon.
Clicking on the titles results in a dialog box informing the user that the titles isn’t available at this time. Additionally, using an iTunes client returns no results for these titles.
With these titles already showing up in iTunes preview it can be assumed that Apple has already reviewed and approved these apps, and that they will be available at the iPad launch on April 3rd.
You can take a look for yourself at Apple’s iTunes Preview page.
