    3Gs and iPad user here. I'm currently waiting for the iPhone 5 and will certainly wait for the iPad 2 (maybe 3). Just not enough "new features" to justify the costs...

    If jobs is planning an appearance, why would he bother for a 'speed bump'? Surely, a health risk would only be worth it for the real deal iPad 2? Apple won't release 1.5 then a redesigned iPad later this year, thats crazy business strategy!

    What would be the point of apple launching two products the same year, based on what apple has done before, they are going to wait till next year. Its just not fair to people that have been waiting for the ipad 2 for a long time, to tell them that there will be a third. A year later is fine, i would most likly buy it, but i think that i pad 2 will be the only product this year. Cant wait till tomorrow.

    Yes, a pointless business strategy. Apple has never done this with any of it's touchscreen idevices. It would only hurt sales, why buy any thing when the better version is comming in a few months?

    No a staffer is that kid standing there flirting with the little girls playing with the photo booth app. Trying to impress them by saying, " yeah baby this thing has a 20 giggapixel hd cam."

    Okay let me ask a uninformed question here..I'm assuming tomorrow's announcement is closed to only the invitees. So if that's the case, how soon will the feed be available to the general public? Are we getting the informtion through rss? Thanks for anyone that can help.

    it makes plenty of sense. the ipad was an inferior product to begin with buy releasing 2 product will help open markets to other groups of people as the second model will be be cheaper or base model that people will actually be able to afford. people are staying away from the ipad because of its heftly features when u can get a netbook 300. im sure the production cost of this new ipad will be pretty cheap and apple will make a killing once the 3rd ipad comes out and they drop it to like 400 dollars.

    The rumors about iPad 3 could be correct but i think that will be a hybrid of iPhone 5 and Ipad 2. Like 7" Retina display, and ability to make calls.I am looking forward to se what Ipad 2 brings later today. My hope is that there will be 2 x 30 pin connectors one in bottom an one on the side.I don't need USB or SD card and i guess there will be none of those.With wifi spot in Ios4.3 on my iPhone 3 GS I don't need a Ipad with 3G either..

    hi stan,Have it crossed your mind that Apple might launch a hybrid of iPhone 5 and iPad 2?In that way they are not stepping on someones toes.."iPad 3" might be a 7" "iTab" ;-)

    iPad 3 will be kick ass if what we expect from iPad 2 comes.
