STEVE JOBS ANNOUNCES NEW IPAD

Here is the new Ipad 2 and once again it is nothing special. Those who proclaimed the new iPad as the iPad 1.5 rather than the iPad 2.0 had it right. Instead of doing a big event, the company could have simply done a small announcement and slipstreamed the upgrade into its stores and outlets.

There were only two important items added to the device: the HDMI connection and the second camera. The rest was normal and expected performance upgrades that did not need a special event.
Who is really going to use the HDMI or the camera? If you haven't noticed, the front-facing camera on the iPhone is usually used for one conference call to see if it works, then never used again. I suppose some people may use it a lot while away from home, but most people will never use it. It's a gimmick
