Until you install 4.2.1 then your battery life will decrease fast anyways.Quote:

I've had 4.2.1 on it since it was released and never noticed an appreciable difference in battery life although I always close out the apps via the dock tray after use.Quote:

As for scvreen resolution, the original has only been out since April and developers are still getting used to the iPad and porting their apps to it so I doubt Apple would be so keen to change one of the fundamental components so early in it's life. It's one thing to increase CPU power or add new features like a camera but another to change a fixed screen resolution.
Hi, new here, but does anyone have any idea whether the ipad 2 c/ the alledged usb port will let ya use an air card instead of beine held captive to ATT for 3G access?
thanks,

Be aware that I'm most cases battery life has not changed with the upgrade. If you have reduced battery life it most likely is due to the set up on your ipad and or an application that is running in back ground that is causing it. Push email brightness of screen etc will have returned to default state so check to makes sure they are correct. Hope that helpsQuote:

If this is the case, they should only have one model, say a 32gb. Make consumers pay 599$ for it, then they can use external drives to access other media they may have a need for at the moment. Thatd be awesome. I would totally buy another if they integrated usb. Usb is called usb because it stands for UNIVERSAL Serial Bus. If they restricted access from it, theyd clearly be in violation of the industry standard would they not?Quote:

I think America's companies are way too greedy for their own good. It would really make the providers try to innovate new technologies to best the others if consumers had choices, wouldnt you think?Quote:

I believe the Universal only relates to the kind of content that can be accessed via USB, it doesn't mandate what must it must be used for.Quote:

A little unknowledgeable on this ..
thanks,

you can prolly use any air card to get internet to the att 3g (and just turn off 3g) or the standard wifi iPad or vzw iPad...
Can't you use Verizon now?Quote:
