Two cameras, lighter and slimmer with a dual-core A5 processor. 9 x faster graphics and a longer lasting battery. Will this be a new revolution?
Launched in the USA from March 11th , the UK will have to wait until March 25th to get there hands on this new device.
During a recent press conference, Apple confirmed what had previously been rumoured on the Internet, that the iPad 2 will have 2 cameras .
One placed at the front, and one at the rear allowing the consumer to use Facetime, a video calling application.
In my opinion the biggest advantage is going to be the dual-core processor which will mean more speed when surfing the Internet and using applications.
The new device is also a third slimmer than it's predecessor, at only 8.8 mm thick ( that's less than the iPhone 4 )
There will also be 6 options to choice from,
16gb,32gb,64gb + 3g versions.
The new iPad is also supports HDMI connectivity, allowing you to display video content on a suitably equipped television screen.
Another interesting solution is the so called ' Smart Cover' which can be purchased separately.
This cover allows convenient positioning of the iPad during presentations video conferencing so you don't have to use your hands.
After closing the cover the device automatically goes into sleep mode and then wakes up again once unveiled again.
Despite health problems, Steve Jobs, Apples Chief Executive, explained that Apple is not gong to rest on their laurels, and have raised the bar for competitors who try to 'clone' the iPad!
