So the iPad 2 is been launched now and will be available for sale soon. You can watch the Promo of this new iPad 2 and you will not be able to wait to get your hands on this new device. But the question is, do you really want an iPad 2?
Go on reading the difference between iPad and iPad 2, from which you can find the answer. By the way, if you need to transfer photos to ipad and sync ipad with 2 computer, this guide can help you a lot.

Here is a quick summary on the differences between the iPad and the iPad2:
Size and Weight:
the iPad 2 is around 2/3 rds of the thickness of the iPad, and 88 percent of its weight You’ll notice the difference right away. This is a thinner, lighter device.

Price:
Although not officially confirmed, the iPad 2 will be the same price as the iPad.

Performance:
Double the RAM (256mb increased to 512MB) a dual core processor which makes it significanly faster to run apps and the graphics performance is according to Apple “is as much as nine times faster than on the original iPad” From the moment you pick it up, it is faster and more snappy to load and do the things you ask of it.

New Camera:
The iPad 2 gets a couple of cameras, front and back, ready for video conferencing.

Case:
The new smaller, rounded case means unfortunately that your iPad case and stands probably won’t fit the new model.

Screen:
The Screen remains the same on the new model.

Battery:
The 10hour battery life remains in tact!

Maybe you will find that no much improvement has been done to the iPad 2, just 2 Cameras (rear and front) and a 1GHz dual core with A5 can be counted as the different between the version 2 and the original. But how many of us are going to use the iPad camera for taking pictures and recording videos. I think I will waiting for the next one.
