It look nice, but bottom line for me personally, and the way I use the iPAD, I don't seem to lose that much.
- I am not into creating Music.
- I am not into editing Video.
- I am taking pictures with a real Camera.
- Video conf is nice but I hardly need it.
- Smart Cover ? big deal
- It is 31% thinner - Good.
- I weigh 15% less - Very handy when reading in bed.
- Fast Internal processor - That one I may miss. But maybe not.
- HDMI - Very handy. But I use my PC HDMI allready.
Any othe Major Point guys ?
I still love my iPad 1 and don't see a need to upgrade but would trade my 1 for a 2 in a second.
The price is great, I wonder what this will do for the used price of an iPad 1????
Typical apple, I can't believe they didn't even raise the memory, memory is so cheap. Anyway I got mine used for 350 so if anybody wants mine for 400 with an apple case that is the only way I will upgrade. Engadget already said the a5 doesn't make a difference because if it's dual core no apps are even made to handle that it will just act as one.
And I'm I the only one that hates the new body it's too curvy. And I can't believe the body leaked again since it is the same as ces show
You may have forgotten the 9x faster graphics?
The more I read the more I realise the only clinchers would be the faster chip.
Well I just bought 5.Quote:

It sounds good for some but I already had decided that the 1 would be fine for 2 generations anyhow. I'm buying a new camera body this Spring and my Ipad still does what I need (and I do use it a lot for quite diverse things) so I kniw my priorities LOL.
As for reading in bed I love my Propup. i don't even have to hold it. A good $25 spent.

How much RAM?
Apple doesn't specify the RAM, but it is safe to assume that iPad 2 has 512MB.Quote:

can't wait trip see out benchmarks though. Love the power vr sgx chip it uses.
New ipad uses dual core gpu also..dont count it out yet. We know for sure its way more powerful thn first generation. Stop trying to find the negatives n look at the positives..lmao i know u love android but xoom sux, accept it ;-)Quote:
