The iPad 3's H.264 playback chip is the same as the iPad 2 (and the new Apple TV's) - that is it will support up to:
1920x1080
30 FPS
High Profile at level 4.1
The biggest difference you'll find is that the 8x8 Transform option is now respected instead of being discarded when making sure the resulting settings matches Baseline or Main Profile specs.
From Handbrake's tooltip on the 8x8 transform.
