No reason at all - it is the same size and ppi resolution

BTW, I saw on many forums that iPad 2 actally has worse screen (cheaper). It is old-fashioned backlited TFT which commonly has a problem with light leakage at the edges and poor viewing angles. Probably no matter for watching movies or gaming but for reading it's a big NO!

I anticipate that over time most of AppStore application will not work on iPad 1 since iPad 2 has better "power under the shell" which is a Holly Grail for developers. Hoverer it should never happen to applications like reader or notepad.

So if you really have spare $100 and good luck selling yours for $400 ... do you need any advise?
