    Ipad2 Multimedia

    I am going to buy the ipad2 today. I would like to know if there is a way to connect the ipad2 to my PC so that i can play music which is on my PC from my ipad2? I have speakers throughout the house and i would like to be able to access my PC mp3 library from my ipad2 and have it play in the house.

    hope this isn't a stupid question.

    You can share the iTunes library on you PC, and it will be available (on the same network) on the iPad. iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device

    In addition there are many third party streaming solutions, some which will work over the internet. Search for streaming music or movies. Here is a link to get you started.

    rumors rumors, and not even good substantial rumors; just link bait and wishful thinking.

    The most likely release date for the next iPad is sometime in or shortly after April 2012. And that is just a guess based on Apple's tendency to release things the same time (more or less) each year.

    Remote only controls music playback in iTunes on your computer. The music still plays on the computer. I am not familiar with the other apps.
