Author Topic: Ipad 2  (Read 4507 times)


I'm quite interested. The iPad original wasn't in my interest-- lack of cameras and little emphasis on productivity was a total deal breaker. But I did send a request to Apple in a consumer feedback thing saying I'd like to see iLife (iMovie, Garageband) and more emphasis on productivity, and now they have. Guess I wasn't the only one who requested it.

I'm quite interested in having one for work and play. Something cool about having a little digital slate to hold my digital life and work on. Loving the remote desktop apps too. Improved CPU and graphics is a definite temptation here.

I agree with you. The first iPad in my opinion wasn't that tempting to buy or interesting to me. It was only an oversized iPod touch. But the iPad 2 seems to have more of the "computer" side to it, with more computer based applications and processing power.

I just got a nice iPad 1 for free. Thanks to discovery communications.

You have a USB humping dog, I take it.

Thats a silly definition, although I agree there needs to be a more simplified way for data transfer.

Imo main reason there isn't a usb is 1. To keep it as slim as possible
2. Would make it so that the iPad would be a little more open to the general user.. which we all know apple is against.

Open in what sort of ways?

Apple very much locks down iOS so people don't screw around with it. Hence jailbreaking.
