Yes. It's slimmer, 15% lighter, comes with dual processors, two cameras, and is available in white.

And the camera bit is why I bought mine without waiting for the 2nd generation to come out. I figured they'd do somethng like that. A camera tablet wouldn't be allowed where I work.
Not dual processors, a dual core processor.

You have been led to believe well, recently I was bestowed by a beautiful grandchild. So I am a grand father. If you arrived to that by the avuncularity of my advices, that's very good both for you and for me. Wisdom meets wisdom. Handsome I am told and young looking. And thanks to dieting, no more smoking and drinking, in shape, almost one of those lady killer actors. Almost. Maybe? Maybe. Fascinating I was told, yesterday, and that is the naked truth. Affascinante, in Italian of course, what else, I live here and we speak Italian. Do not trust Italians. That is well known. Beware of Italians and of their tricks. I would rather be from Burgerland or Popcornia but ... I am just Italian.

So that is me, now the avatar. You also switched avatar, by the way, and surprisingly you are surprised by this wave of changes. I am surprised. Or not?

You sure that you really want to know if the picture in my avatar is me?

Must be a fever.

I was asked the same question this morning, for a sudden hormone driven desire to jump on the first plane and eat me all, out of pure lust. Gobble was the word. And by a much younger girl. After that I am not going to change avatar, not even for money. Any money.

Why not. It has happened to me already. I found that at least brilliant. But Deb, dear friend, what do you want from me? I am taken. I even put it up. Taken? Taken, but ...

And none can have me, except who can. And that's the truth. Like the seven dwarfs and Snowhite. Pinocchio?

Sit corrected, it's much more comfortable and not as noticeable to the rest of the people about.

I was reading a blurb about the iPad2, couldn't they come up with something more original, anyway in the blurb they were going on about the lack of ram, or rather the lack of information. I'm sure they have left it at 256MB as was the first iPad because if it was higher Apple would have made a big deal about it.

Yeah, after reading the announcement I wasn't disappointed at all about not waiting for iPad 2. I don't need cameras on a tablet, and the Ipad I have is quite zippy, so I don't think I'll miss the extra processing power. Considering the fact that I have one at all was a pretty good shock and I'm still getting used to the idea; I hadn't really been paying attention and didn't know an iPad 2 was just around the corner in the first place!

(and where the heck is the strikethrough command??)

Wow, you just said Beppe was old - that wasn't very nice... I'd put up a younger avatar too

indeed! and quite scary to think what might be hiding out there behind online personas! I'm glad my kids are past the stage where I would be panicked about them online
