[LyleLanley]

Oh, so if I want it to be delivered, how long would it take?

If you order it as soon as possible I believe it will arrive on launch day.

Edit:

iPad 2 is still around.

 

[Backfoggen]

RIP iPad 2 value.

 

[bishoptl]

It's whatever you want it to be at this point.

 

[Vanillalite]

Only problem I still have is I wish iOS had more live tiles/widgets/live icons wtf every you want to call them just to push more info to me. iOS 5 does a much better job than iOS 4, but it's still not exact at where I want it to be.

That being said Garageband seems soooo OMFG spoogerific!

 

[Salacious Crumb]

Can anyone summarize what's new with the AppleTV?

1080p

the end.

 

[3N16MA]

$399 iPad 2.

 

[Zeth]

iPad 2 $399

16GB

 

[Satchel]

So glad they removed the numbering bullshit.

Hopefully that means the new iPhone is just the new iPhone.

 

[freenudemacusers]

Oh wow, keeping the 2 around... ouch.

 

[flyover]

Did they skip over Data pricing, or did I just miss it?

They didn't say.

 

[Jal]

APPLE PRICE DROP!

MOTHER OF CHRIST!!

 

[renitou]

Pixels lifted out of the signal paths confirmed.

What does this mean?

 

[giga]

Keeping iPad 2 in lineup for $400 is smart.

 

[TheDiabolical]

so reading my digital comics will look great on this?

 

[Stumpokapow]

Can anyone summarize what's new with the AppleTV?

1080p, new interface, same shape, same price, and iTunes DRM rules are changing to allow redownload of some movies/TV shows.

 

[a secret-boss]

Will Smith eating crow on that iPad 2 SKU

 

[BeeDog]

Seriously, the only thing I care about is;

1) is there a chance my current SwitchEasy back cover will fit the new iPad?
2) Will the new iPad work in Alesis IO Dock?

 

[kehs]

Craiglist buyers wails heard around the whole simultaneously.

 

[Nevasleep]

lol and sucky apps

Android tablet applications don't suck!

Ohhhhhh.

 

[MilesWebber]

yup 16gb ipad 2

another correct prediction

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

Great, another device I can completely ignore Siri on

 

[TylerD]

So how much could i hope to sell my 1st gen 16gb 3g for after this announcement?

 

[LCfiner]

Oh, so you're one of those idiots. Good to know.

only game center and the "find my friends" apps look awkward. they went a bit too far with the textures.

the linen looks fine - maybe it's just a bit overused.

but Apple has great UI designs for tons of its apps. I need to see more of iPhoto but the screens shots I saw looked good. minimal chrome but some nice touches to make it fun and approachable with big brushes and palettes.

 

[MAtgS]

So $299 for ipad 1 then?

 

[dc89]

Can anyone summarize what's new with the AppleTV?

1080P support.
New UI in 1080P.
Recommends stuff on what you've already watched.
Same price.
March 16th.

 

[Crazymoogle]

Did they skip over Data pricing, or did I just miss it?

Not yet AFAIK, probably up to each carrier

 

[Deleted member 17706]

$399 iPad 2... damn. Budget Android tablets to feel the pain even more.

 

[chickdigger802]

Sigh, if only they would announce a university student discount ;P

 

[ultron87]

Okay, selling an iPad 2 that is strictly worse than the product called the iPad is stupid as hell.

 

[Chris R]

Looks like a solid upgrade to the iPad. Nothing more or less than what I thought was going to be announced. The LTE stuff is neat, but with the current plans (and miniscule bandwidth caps) offered by various carriers here in the USA I'd never even consider it. Good to see Apple embrace it though, should mean an LTE iPhone this year as well.

 

[60_gig_PS3]

I have an ipad 2 and it's an amazing must-have device, IMO. BUT the biggest problems are not the resolution. If they wanted to make a better ipad it should've been thinner, lighter, and longer battery life.

 

[richiek]

"The New iPad?"

 

[3N16MA]

$399 iPad is a smart move.

 

[grkazan12]

32gb for me, just don't know which color to go with? Damn apple why did you have to show the white ipad on the box.

 

[Backfoggen]

What does this mean?

I have no idea, it's just so random that they'd mention that when they don't even talk about RAM and stuff lol.

 

[krypt0nian]

so reading my digital comics will look great on this?

"You have no idea" - Scar, Lion King

 

[Deleted member 22576]

So then I'm also assuming the smart covers just work? They haven't mentioned new ones.

 

[jts]

iPods also didn't have a gen number on their official name. No problem there.

We can go back to the (G3) or (3G) route, eventually we'll just call them by the release year.

An iPad 15 or iPhone 20 would sound totally ridiculous.

 

[Gareth Bale]

So it doesn't have that touchy-feely screen then?

 

[snack]

Sigh, if only they would announce a university student discount ;P

Technically it's a computer so they should offer one!

 

[flyover]

So glad they removed the numbering bullshit.

Hopefully that means the new iPhone is just the new iPhone.

Totally agree. Just refer to it by year and device name. So much better than, years from now, having the iPhone 16S or whatever.

 

[kehs]

I like the name, fuck all those suffixes.

 

[Takamura-San]

So how much could i hope to sell my 1st gen 16gb 3g for after this announcement?

Just burn it

 

[Jasoco]

2011: iPad 2
2012: The New iPad
2013: The Newer iPad...?
2014: The New Newer iPad?
2015: Fuck if I know

 

[Yami]

is it just me or is just calling it 'the new iPad' going to cause confusion to buyers, especially with the 'iPad 2' still on shelves?

 

[a secret-boss]

Guys its called The New IPad

 

[mrkgoo]

Hmmm. So what albums/photos does iPhoto utilise? Obviously the camera roll/saved photos album...but what about synced albums? Can I bring in those? What happens if I make an edit on asynced photo....do I have to actually send it out somewhere else, or does it edit my synced image?

 

[The Elite]

Curious to see what I can get a used iPad 2 for now.

 

[Michan]

How is this not confusing to the average consumer?! The iPad 2 is inferior to the iPad.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

TIM STEVENS 4 MINUTES AGO
Now we're talking about the quad-core A5X. "It makes everything you do feel real fast and​ smooth."​ But, still 10 hour battery life.

Wait...the A5X is quad-core? I thought they were sticking with dual-core. Is Stevens just talking shit, or has this been confirmed?
