After iPad 2 was released, now it has its strongest competitor ever, Motorola Xoom tablet with the newest Android version, which is 3.0 Honeycomb. This new Operating System is reported to be much cleaner and faster from the previous generation, Android Froyo.

iPad 2 Smart Cover Review

 

Buy Apple® iPad 2™ Smart Cover - Blue (MC942LL/A) at Amazon now


The original iPad really worked best when in a case, but as Steve Jobs lamented in launching the iPad 2, most iPads have had their beautiful design—toiled over by Apple’s finest aesthetes!—cloaked by cases made of fabric or leather. And cases don’t just hide that pretty iPad—they also add thickness and weight. Clearly Apple couldn’t stand for this situation, because with the iPad 2, the company has not just introduced a new case, the iPad Smart Cover (Apple Web page); support for the case is baked right into the iPad 2’s hardware and software.
The new case—actually just a front-only cover—is a rectangle the exact size and shape of the iPad’s screen, divided lengthwise into four segments. The side that faces inward is covered with soft microfiber cloth; the outside is either leather ($69) or polyurethane ($39), each available in one of five colors.

iPad 2 Review

It’s official: the new device is called the iPad 2. The design hasn’t just been tweaked, Jobs says. It’s all new from the bottom up.
Firstly, there are a couple of new processors. The main CPU is a Samsung A5 dual core processor. That will be up to nine times faster than the original iPad. Secondly, there’s a new graphics processor that’s two times faster than that of the iPad 1.
