Forums › General Discussion › iPad 2 will be officially announced shortly...-
So what's you take on the new device? Any must have enhancements?
-
It pretty much the same isn't it? More ram and that's about it, bit of a cop out I think, try know what they doing releasin in stages get most money,
-
The apple upgrade cycle.....
-
I thought it had something else... Like a microphone or something like that?
-
The usual cycle updates. Faste and thinner, slight design change, rumoured 2 cameras could mean FaceTime. It's being announced at 6pm GMT. Apparently Amazon Germany have leaked a price of £499 for 16GB.
On a side note, the new Motorola Xoom could be a real iPad hitter, looks cool.

*correction. €499 euros.

I'm waiting for the iPad 3 that they're expecting to come out in September.
-
for those interested as the news comes in...

HDMI video out. Niiiice
-
FaceTime as I said. iOS 4.3 personal wifi hotspots
-
Some funky cases. Quite clever magnetic hinge that pits the pad to sleep on close.
-
iPad 2 will be the new 3GS of devices. Save up for the iPad 3.
-
Hdmi out well apple you satisfied one of two conditions...Now before I buy you, how about a USB port eh? No? Then I'm sorry, I cannot tolerate iTunes...because it's shit. Sorry.

They've made more effort this time. Any device u buy will always lack something. There is nothing that has everything. I'm interested in seeing what new innovative accessories come out now. It's a whole new ball game for magnetic protective accessories.

Wait for iPad 3 to come out then get iPad 2 cus the price will drop

I bought an iPad last week, and normally I get pissed when this happens, but after watching the video I don't care, it's like and iPhone 3G vs a 3Gs.
My roommate and his GF both have iPhone 4's and they think FaceTime is kinda creepy and weird, and I agree with em.

Well no it's not actually. iPad 2 has hardware enhancements, it bridges the gap between media device and personal computer. I get te feeling Apple is gonna push this on a much wider scale.

Not quite enough new to get me to spend another $600 but the cover looks great. Probably just going to start saving for #3

I like the new iPad, but the one I just bought suits me fine😏

Those that already have 1 won't be deterred. But for someone like me who wanted to wait until a better version comes out will now consider buying 1.

Not really a cop out. Double the speed is still double the performance, it's not as if the current RAM isn't enough. No doubt, they'll probably want this release to last as long as possible which means it's likely they'll release iPad 2 version 2 between generation cycles.krazijay wrote:

What an overpriced piece of shit. Blow up overpriced iTouch. Number 2. I wonder if the price has doubled yet?

I've had mine for a week, and I don't ever wanna use my iPhone for anything other than a phone again.
Go try and read a magazine on an iPod touch and give us a review of the experience....

And yeah, it's obvious that apple has a target demographic. Look at the MacBook air. Then look at the price. Then look at what it's good for? Hah yeah apple likes to milk rich people.
-
Yea they do milk the releases ,an chargetop dollar, but their machines are very high quality and have to be for their target demographic, as people who have and who make money don't do so by paying over odds for things!! Lol so definitely price to quality ratio has got to be good a ter success shows, do like apple but not fanboy
-
Yea, if u can afford it it's nice to have 5 computers, one for each need.
My co-worker has an iMac, MacBook pro, MacBook air and iPad. Depending on where he goes and what he is doing he brings the appropriate computer.
It's not milking rich people, it's supplying a product that's high in demand......MacBook air has it's uses, it is expensive , and it's specs are low. But why should I lug around my 17" MacBook pro if I'm just gonna make small adjustment to my presentations.
I get the feeling you'd be singing a different tune if u used computers a lot more and made money from them
-
Am untreated in new motorila though, and I believe there are already some high end business tablets on the Market? The idevices don't come in business I font believe although can handle slot of tasks and even mire now, I think they are a commercial product and u would lose something in the product if they true to crops both ,maybe they should have a business iPhone and a commercial 1 , like milia n series and the other series (forget now ) c series
-
Apple no matter what anyone says is definitely at the top of their game, and it goes to show that by th fact that u will never have(at moment) a machine that does all and please all, the two top machine or 4 th galaxy the blackberry te zoom and iPad, between them they are ultimate in tablets,and each have their strength and a good salesman will extract what would suit u, if they made the perfect one then less money spent as everyone happy! Like tesco n sainsburys taking in turn to lower certain products each week,so neither lose out
-
Troggy has summed things up nice. In it's entire history iPhone 4 design flaw was the first big screw up they had, regardless, you look at the quality of the device. U pay a premium and u get premium. As a 2nd attempt in the fat growing tablet market Apple has done well with iPad W keeping it in line with competition. The only hig shady is they haven't confirmed the cameras mp's or the ram. Giving it HD puts it up top for digital media, the only disappointment is no retina display (matter of time), but I'd assume its due to manufacture costs and them wanting to keep the price competitive. What u get for the price actually makes iPad 2 the best in the market now.
