I experienced no difference in terms of speed when I tried to load the fucked up shit what makes you laugh thread. This was tested when I held the two devices side by side. Seems like it's not that hard to pick one up in Vancouver  Posted via RS Mobile |

Ps. If you do decide on getting an ipad 1 go check out the SFU bookstore cuz they are getting rid of their old stock. I remember they were letting the 64gb Wifi one go for 449.99+tax.

what does everyone think of the massive excessive post of ipad 2 that people sell for a premium? I hope that no one buys from them to prevent them from making this a business...anyways...

The iPad 2 is definitely worth the $100. Although Apple claims graphics up to 9x faster, actual testing has shown around 5x faster on average. That's a huge difference from the iPad 1. If you do anything graphic intensive, or like games, you're going to want to pop for the iPad 2.
App developers are already releasing versions optimized to take advantage of the better graphics. Infinity Blade had a "quick update" and it looks and plays much better on the iPad 2. Imagine a title written to take advantage of all the iPad 2's graphics instead of an existing game getting a "refresh"?

If anyone is still looking for the iPad2
Apple requires you to reserve it online so they don't get a line-up every morning
Here's the link to reserve one online. IF they get any stock they will show up at 9:00PM local time. http://reserve.apple.com/WebObjects/...aunch=MC769C_A | |
