Your Opinion About iPad 2

Steve Jobs took a break from his ongoing medical leave to unveil the second generation iPad, called iPad 2.

Here's a video of iPad 2-

Apple's got some nice goodies with Dual Core A5 processor which gives twice CPU performance over iPad, 9x faster graphics, $499 price (in the US), 1/3rd weight, and very thin body.

What's your opinion about iPad 2? Is it a game changer?

    iPad 2 does not have SIM Card Slot (Obviously), No microSD card, No Gorilla glass. 😭

    The iPad 2 doubles the memory to 512MB and uses the dual core 1 GHz A5 chip.
    This means significantly faster performance and multitasking environment. More RAM means more simultaneous apps. :-D
    The 2 camera feature is good. 😀

    Considering whether one will be be using the cameras and whether the improved performance and the light-weight body is something one finds convenient and cool-looking, it's everyone's taste that will determine it's success.
    iPad 2 is surely making waves though. 👍


    PS: It still doesn't have Samsung's super-AMOLED screen display. 😛

    I guess 512 is more or less the standard for all modern tablets. The rear camera resolution is not known but it does HD movie capture. I don't particularly like the size of iPad and it's sure to make people awkward to shoot videos with this big device. I continue to wonder why Apple ignores USB or even the #-Link-Snipped-# they recently introduced in Mac book Pros.

    Looks like not many CEans care about tablets 😛 . Anyway. I'm shocked that iPad 2 has same 256 MB RAM as iPad 1 😐 . Can someone confirm this?
