Will The iPad 2 Be Worth The Upgrade?


By

Apple will unveil the second generation iPad later today, the iPad 2, but will the new iPad be enough to make you want to upgrade? We are expecting to see Apple unveil a thinner iPad with some built in cameras, possibly a new processor and more storage.

According to the guys over at Cult of Mac, the iPad 2 will be a minor update, and the one to watch out for is the iPad 3, although we don’t know what features will be included in the iPad 3.

According to Cult of Mac the iPad 2 is more of a speed update than anything else, so we suspect it will follow the line of the iPhone 3GS when it was upgraded from the iPhone 3G, it was slightly faster with a few extra features.

According to the report, the iPad 3 will actually launch later this year, and we suspect that this will be the model that will feature a higher resolution display and a range of other features.

It will be interesting to see what Apple unveils later today, and we will keep you guys update, the event is scheduled for 6PM GMT today.

    Without knowing the full specs of the new Ipad I can only go on rumours. Based on the rumours I would say that I will not be upgrading my ipad for the latest version.

    I do not have a problem with the time it takes current app to load, I’m happy with the screen and a lot of the apps I use are designed for the iphone so are stretched anyway.

    I cannot see myself walking along holding my ipad and taking pictures, I do not or have I ever wanted to put my mug on a web chat.

    In order to get value for my money I think having my ipad for two years and then selling on makes for me the best sense. That won’t stop many from wanting it because it is the latest version, it never does.

    Yes, i agree with you. BUT I will be getting one. Why? Well, firstly because I don’t have the first gen ipad (i said to myself: why get the first one now, if I can get something better, and only wait like 3-4 months). So, I will be getting this one. After I get this one, I don’t think I will get the third one (rumored to come this fall, but that’s just rumors). I might just get this one, wait like 2 years, and get the fourth(Which will be awesome- i bet a 1000 dollars on that). So, thats my opinion… Also, did you know it has a dual-core processor? Just saying, if ou’r a serious gamer like me, this is good news, and imagine the new possibilites with some new apps.
