IPad 2 33% Thinner, 2x Faster, iOS 4.3
Steve Jobs was on hand today deliver a speech at Apple's iPad 2 event. The
new iPad will feature dual-core processors, 2x faster CPU, and 9X faster
graphics, front and rear cameras. And it's 33% thinner. Prices range from $499 to $829 depending on if
you want 3G and 64 gigs, and it ships March 11. iOS 4.3 will ship at the same time.
Will the $829 model be 65% hipper than the $499 model? I *really* want to impress the other guys in the drum circle.

Why stop there? May as well make it only 1% thicker and 150 hours battery life.

How can I believe you when you tell me what I don't want to hear?

What I do with the other hand I leave as an exercise for the reader's imagination.

Looks like Jobs is 33% thinner, too. Poor guy.
Have you read the reviews of Flash on Android?... every review points out how it turns the entire experience to shit.
Speaking of that, installing flash is kind of like turning my basement into a septic tank for the entire municipal sewage system. Nobody really wants that, but we all have to listen to "that guy" going on and on about how real end users like my mom love the experience of finding diamond rings that accidentally get flushed, and the smell isn't really so bad once you get used to it, and its the most modern way of civil engineering so it must be the best way to do it.
