Could anyone elaborate in which aspects are better than the predecessor?
Too lazy to look for spec's

front and rear camera, 33% thinner, 9x faster graphics, facetime, garageband, photobooth... and a cool new case. Thats pretty much it i think.

The cover is pretty cool. It sleeps / wakes up the iPad when you close / open it, respectively.

the main new feature that will sell is that you can hook it up to projectors and televisions for presentations and present what you have created

The word you may be looking for to better describe your idea is PLUMMET. I am more interesting in saving for an iPad 2 after the early-adopters get their fix, and the product is ready for a third generation.

the front and back cameras are pretty neat, and a third thinner, that's crazy

Will the first generation ipad in the SBR store get a discount? The new ipad costs the same amount as the first ipad so I dont think they should jack up the price for those lucky enough to get it.

They say version 3 is where they will pull out the big guns, but the 2 is supposed to have a camera... I'm not sure why that wasn't a part of the first version (which I have). If anything, a good opportunity for folks to buy the version 1 cheaply now.

those that knock it have likely never tried it. the thing is much better than any notepad. facetime is hella good if you have kids in family. boss is giving us all the 64g 3g ones when they come in and i'll give the old one to the kids at child haven(part of family services) out here in vegas.

I PMed Sam9ball and he said that they will most likely be replacing the ipad for the ipad 2 in the SBR store. AWESOME!

ipad2 doesn't seem like a huge improvement from the first one, but the price is going to be set the same so that's definitely a good thing

Have to wait until the 25th in Oz
There are now some good work apps for iPad, so I can justify buying one.

Can you pre-order these or just have to be lucky on the 11th to get one?
