Apple iPad 2



Apple made a few but big changes on their iPad 2. It’s now faster and more powerful, has a front and rear cam for Facetime (fixed focus camera), thinner and lighter (has a slim 8.8mm form and is 79g lighter than the original iPad), and it also inherited the Gyroscope from the iPhone 4 and iPod Touch 4G (gyroscope was included to make some games, especially racing, more engaging and fun). The iPad 2 now sports a dual-core 1GHz Apple A5 processor which would greatly boost the performance of applications and games. The iPad Smart Cover looks awesome though but it will be sold separately as an accessory. Way better than the original iPad’s folio.

Apple announced that the iPad 2 will be shipping in the US on March 11th, and another 25 extra countries on the 25th – however the Philippines hasn’t been included in those countries so expect a longer wait before you get your hands on it.
