The BBC is planning to release the long overdue iPlayer app for the iPad (sorry folks, UK only) this Thursday according to a BBC Interactive Operations engineer Geoff Marshall.

Here are a couple of tweets from Marshall on Twitter:

Woah there … higher-res screen on the iPad 2 … ??? Could the BBC know something about the iPad 2 that the rest of us don’t? Don’t know, but it is suspicious that Marshall’s Twitter account is now set to private.

Hmmm, interesting!
