Why? Given they released the camera kit Apple are obviously happy for people to connect an SD card and they've been adding them to everything else so it makes perfect sense for them to add one to the iPad2.
Good, I hope you are right.

I just see a long history of iDevices that have always had fixed storage even when all the competitors have allowed memory cards forever.

The blogs are assuming that the A8 and A5 mean the same thing. I reckon that a dual-core A4 with an upgraded GPU (A8) makes sense for an iPad 2 with a high-rez screen. The next-gen processor (A5?) would make sense for the iPhone5, which people say is going to be a complete design reboot.

From what I read over the weekend Akai haven't published pricing or release dates yet, so be wary of that site.

Having said that: yes, it looks gorgeous and if I was still gigging (and owned an iPad!) I'd have one in a flash.

New beta of 4.3 out with the message gestures won't be in the final release...
This feature will not be enabled in iOS 4.3 for customers, but we are providing this preview to gather input on how these gestures work with your apps.

Right guys rather than another thread for iPad 4 I am going to use this a generic iPad thread (except for the iPad Mini which has its own thread)

No no no. We totally need an "iPad 4" thread. Failing that, let's go with "new new iPad". This should be quite entertaining in a few more hardware generations. Maybe a short form, "New^2 iPad".

(Probably sticking with one thread is best.)

Well the apple guy in the shop said its just the "new ipad" but everyone else says 4th gen - new lightening connector funky and easy to use but besides that and quick opening apps currently feels just the same ps the Minis are just lovely - to touch is to want
