iPad 2.0, and Why You Should Have One

Apple launched the iPad 2.0 just a year after the launch of the iPad. Apple iPad had single handedly created the tablet computer market after its release, and completely dominated it too. Not to say that the iPad was the first tablet ever - there have been other tablets before it in the market. However, it was only with iPad that the users were convinced that a tablet computer was a device worth buying. The iPad 2.0 builds on the dominance of its predecessor to give a better experience to the user.

iPad 2.0 comes with a screen size of 9.7 inches or 250 mm, which is much larger than many tablets in the market. In comparison, the smaller version of Kindle is sized at just 7 inches. iPad 2.0 comes with a resolution of 1024 x 768, which is the same as that of the first generation iPad. Indeed, outwardly, the iPad has not changed much, but when you look under the hood, you see that it comes with a new and faster processor, the dual core A5 CPU.

It is lighter than its predecessor by 80 grams, and its top competitor the Motorola Xoom by 50 grams. The iPad 2.0 is also 33% thinner than the iPad.

One of the most attractive features of the iPad 2.0 are the front and back cameras.
