Going to put my iPad 2 up for sale next week, hoping I can get at least $600-650 for it.

Looking forward to replacing my iPad 1! I'm hoping release is soon after the announcement.

I think I'll put mine on eBay next week as well. Any idea what a 64GB 3G one should go for in the UK? It's got a couple of tiny scratches on the back, but no other marks at all.

Wow, I thought the black would be cheaper than the white. Mine is black and comes with a smart cover (although I'd keep that if I knew it would work on the new model for sure).

I hope the quality of the cameras are better. The current cameras are shockingly bad

They are really awful. Although I wouldn't mind the same camera on the back as I could never see myself taking a photo with one however, I would very much like to see a 720p (at least) front facing camera. Using FaceTime in anything less than optimal conditions looks awful.

We don't use ours for taking pictures, but the iPad 2 is working great for video conferencing with our polycom equipment. With the free polycom app an iPad 2 sure makes a great alternative to buying more polycom equipment for single person use.

Hopefully it is indeed a quad core processor, I'd love to see that become more mainstream for tablets.

Early March is looking to be a pretty exciting time.

Which version do you have? I just sold my 64GB 3G iPad 2 for $650 on eBay.

Specs specs, what are the specs?

Any guesses?
Hard to call.
Should at least be able to pull off A5 Quad-Core with SGX543MP4, pretty much what the Vita is running. 32nm as well. Resolution, pick something like 16x12 or 19x14 just to stick with the 4:3 ratio.

I hope it's round and has a snap-on leg assembly kit.

Even the current specs on 28nm or 32nm would be welcome site. Greater battery and higher clocks! Hardware is still top notch.


Wonder if it'll be Cortex A15 or an A15 hybrid like the Krait.

Oh nice, that is the same version that I have.

I am hoping to sell it here at work to avoid eBay, I always get scammers bidding on my posts.

you know what annoys me, only apple comes up with the idea that maybe we do not need more processing power and cores but better battery life


I am looking at you, quadcore mobile devices makers.

Actually, nVIDIA has thought of this with their 4x1 architecture - in deep sleep, all 4 main cores are powered down and a low frequency chip keeps the system running. It's higher cost but it's extremely hard/impossible to make a 1.5GHz CPU run at 30MHz.

Since battery tech is moving so slow, though, there will probably become a time where there really is a limit and tech slows down to a crawl waiting for die shrinks.
