I hear through the grapevine (i.e. I read on CNET) that a Taiwanese camera lens manufacturer Largan Precision will supply lenses for the forthcoming iPad 2. Well, that’s nothing that shocking, since most people already didn’t understand why the iPad 1 didn’t already have a camera. Big reason for me to wait for the iPad 2 to come out. What other features would Apple need to equip the iPad 2 with to keep competing with all other tablets popping out from anywhere?

nothing at all. they've already sold over 6 million iPads worldwide. has anyone else even come close?

personally, I want facetime, 3G on all models and a Retina Display, before I get my own iPad.

Read this for some more news on this http://thenextweb.com/apple/2010/11/26/dig...5-new-features/

USB would be a no. Retina display is a possibility gyro is a must

But im prettu sure even if theres no new ipad next year, itll still sell very well

I agree with the article on thenextweb.. I’m definitely one of the Apple users who have been longing for the USB-ports to be implemented with the iPad. Apart from that, a front face camera for conference calling.

yeah think the camera aint a big surprise, together with the retina display. proly a usb input wud b a shock. think no need for that. perhaps a lighter and less bulkier iPad wud b more appreciated.

Cheaper?

The current iPad are still selling strong. Went to Machines at Sunway Pyramid after office on Friday, and people are still lining up to get the iPad.

we have to wait approximately 7 months to get our hands on iPad locally, then a new refreshed model is in the pipeline?? How long we have to wait for the new model? Bet our neighbor down south will get the 1st taste of a refreshed iPad.

to be honest, other than FaceTime
i dont see the needs of it

like GALAXY TAb with front facing camera, but no apps allow you to use it?
not skype at least

Malaysia is quite slow.
It took them this long to get the iPad officially launch here.
Don't get me wrong I support my country and all but simply the waiting game to wait for the iPhone and iPad for example is just too long.

Singapore is my best bet so far and guarantee the rest of us will try and get it somewhere else.

Hope the upcoming iPad would have all the beauty that makes iPhone 4 and perhaps cheaper price maybe to compete with all the new upcoming tabs from other company??

Wishful thinking

Yup.. agree with you. 1Malaysia.

Let's hope this round, the new iPad will be launched the same time as other country in the region. We are in the same timezoe..if it has bearing on decision making. hahahah..

any idea when the iPad 2 is rumored to b announced?

It doesnt haha

Probably january? The current model was announced on january

i think by Mid Year 2011..

heard a few more updates. the ipad 2 will have landscape mode output together with the current potriat mode output that is one the ipad now.

oh and i heard the new iPhone has heartbeat sensor! guess we shall all wait and see just how true these are.
