  • A5 is a dual-core version of the 1GHz A4 chip that powers the iPhone 4 and the original iPad. The iPad 2 also has 512MB of RAM--twice that of the original iPad--and a 200MHz bus speed,

  • A feature exclusive to the iPad 2 that will be hailed by educators, presenters, and anyone else who has ever wanted to show off their iPad's screen to a large crowd: video mirroring. When connected to the HDMI adapter, the iPad 2 will display a duplicate version of the contents of its screen on an external monitor. Want to demo an education app via a projector or HDTV for a classroom full of kids? The iPad 2 makes it possible.
  • iPad app ecosystem launched strong and has continued to grow, making it one of the iPad's biggest advantages over competing tablets.

What Is Important?| The Committed Sardine - 1 views

  • There are always strengths and weaknesses, so the best policy (IMHO) is to be agile and responsive. Not to lock yourself into one product, but rather consider a range of products that will fill a number of needs. Be agile enough to pick up new tools as they become available, and similarly, be able to let them go when they reach their used-by date.
