IPad 2 Official Specs

Did anyone else notice that the "sensors" section doesn't list anything for the 3g version? Is this an oversight or is it correct?

The rows with specs that don't differ between the two versions span two columns. Look at the backgrounds. It's true for Display, Chip, Cameras, and Sensors.

I didn't see any notice about how much ram it has... I'm hoping it has as much as the iPhone 4. Does anyone know for sure?

That just means it's the same for both devices, the text just wasn't long enough to make it to the second column

HDMI video mirroring is going to be big.

My sister-in-law is a high school teacher and has been wishing she could hook her iPad up to the projector since the day she got it.

Think of all the possibilities...makes so much more sense for a school to spend $500 on an ultralight, ultraportable iPad than spend more on bulky desktops you have to cart around just to play a video or show a web article (citation: my old high school).

There's not much more this feature lets me do on the app front, but man I'm excited to see what people do with it.

It truly amazes me that a company can not only design, manufacture and develop software like this in near 100% secrecy, but that they can also have their website completely updated instantly after the keynote with beautiful graphics and videos. How they do it and keep it so under wraps astounds me.

Same here. iPad 1 can't load more than two tabs for me without swapping one out.
