UK carriers, T-Mobile and Orange have recently slashed prices of iPad 3G models, which probably indicates that iPad 2 launch is imminent.

    Delay for iPad2 will only upset those must have early adopters. for those, like me, taking every opportunity to extract benefit from the old iPad there should not be much difference. While I would like to upgrade later the current model probably does everything the iPad2 will do. Right now it is an essential business tool that supports meetings, access to work email and contains my needed files for viewing. With the updated Pages and Keynote I can even create content for meetings during travel time. Same as I will do on the iPad2

    I'm really hanging out for the ipad2 to come with a hardware keyboard along the edge! I think it could happen - and it'd be awesome!Especially if they had a rotation mechanism to let us swivel the keyboard around to whichever portrait or landscape side of the bezel we want to.

    Both orange and t-mobile joined up and became everything everywhere in the uk, the price drops are no doubt to get more customers due to a lack of interest with the current iPad 2 rumours
