Competition in tablet industry is acquiring tough and iPad 2 requirements to keep up to spear head the tablet trend. Apple is undoubtedly realizing that as they have ordered 6 million units to be manufactured prior to the release date.
iPad 2 will utilize both GSM and CDMA networks to make it effortless to access to the net.
The case will probably be thinner. iPad 2 is made of uni-body single piece of metal with no pins, much like MacBook.
iPad 2 will have both FaceTime front facing camera as within the iPhone too as rear facing camera and it'll also have 3-axis gyroscope.
iPad 2 is roumored to have both an SD card slot and a USB port to permit for uploading media. Other rumors have suggested that Apple is moving towards entirely wireless platform - communicating, printing, and streaming media and images. TechRadar suggests that port use is for an adapter to ensure that the iPad complies with EU regulations on mobile device chargers.
iPad 2 will likely have higher resolution display similar to the Retina Display featured on the iPhone 4. Higher resolution places strains on battery life a speed of processor. Dual Core processor and bigger battery could solve that issue, but then we'd have some additional weight to worry about. 7-inch Retina Display is already being used in other tablets and iLounge suggested that an even smaller, 5.6 inch prototype display is in development.
As for processor KitGuru claims 2 GHz processor and a high definition video camera for next generation of iPad. Memory ought to be upped to 512MB to deal with the demand on multitasking.
As for release date and shipping details we are still inside the dark, even though some reports suggested that Apple will begin shipping the iPad 2 in February, which means that iPad 2 need to be on the shelves by April 2011. If 7 inch iPad will break in than some decrease in price will happen. Otherwise, given the loyal client base of Apple and the quality and reliability of Apple products, we are not speculating on any price drops.
Take a look at a teaser video displaying the prototype uni-body case for second generation of iPad.
