How will the New iPad Screen Affect my Website?

Talking again about the “Feature” the amazing retina display for the new iPad.  While playing games such as Angry Birds the display is great, but how about my website that was originally designed at 1024 x 768?  The iPad is at 2,048-x-1,536-pixel display.  And if you designed your site at the 800 x 600 format– uh forget about it.  Of course there is the option of pinching with your fingers to zoom in, that may help. Would you design your business’s site to fit the New iPad dimensions.  Or do you ride it out until more products use a display at such a high level.  As of now I still will design at 1024 x 768 pixels – if the majority of screens reach iPads’ 2,048 x 1536 then yes I will redesign myself and recommend all of my customers to use this new dimension as the standard.
