iPad 2 Is Here


March 2nd Steve Jobs made a surprise appearance at the Apple keynote in San Francisco to bring you the next generation iPad.

It will be available for sale on Friday, March 11, 2011 in the U.S. and on March 25, 2011 in selected countries worldwide.

It will be available both on AT&T and Verizon for the same price as the original iPad -- the cheapest wi-fi only 16GB version costs $499. The most expensive version featuring wi-fi and 3G and 64GB costs $829.

It sports a new chip called A5 that makes the tablet much faster than the previous version. It comes in two colors white and black.

It has front and back cameras. The new tablet is 33% thinner at 8.8 mm, and is slightly lighter at 1.3 pounds (versus 1.5 pounds for the original iPad.) Its battery life is the same at 10 hours.

Let me know your thoughts on this new Apple creation. I honestly think all the features from the 2 should have been in the first version so I'm not too amped about it.
