Many people have speculated the iPad 2 release to be during Christmas time. I personally believe it would come out sometime from January to April 2011. Why you might ask? Well there are several reasons to this idea.

-It was announced during that time period

-its lacking features its counter-parts have

-a commercial for it has been already shot

-Most importantly Steve Jobs just loves being ahead of the competition.

The iPad was originally announced on January 27th, 2010 and released on April 3rd, 2010. Apple has been always fond of updating around the same time of the year the older model was originally released, so we can already assume iPad 2s release date will be around that time of the year. Why wouldnt Apple continue its regular routine with the iPad 2 release?

Another reason to believe its release is near is the features its lacking that its brothers the iPod touch and iPhone boast. A camera and Face-time. Currently a lot of consumers are wary about buying the iPad 2 because of the fact, the camera and Face-time features might be added in the next generation. With a camera attached to the iPad you could personalize it even further. It would be like taking your laptop, Mp3 player, and Digital camera forming an unbeatable device or other wise known as an iPad 2. Adding Face-time would create a much more personal touch to the iPad. Ive always been fond of video calls and web-caming, the ability to do that on-the-go sounds splendid.

Yes, thats right. The iPad 2 commercial has already been shot in New York. I doubt Apple would film a commercial for a product that isnt even near release yet. The shots had used older models of the iPad that would be swapped out with newer ones post-production. We can assume that the iPad 2 will be the same size as the first generation.

Finally, the reason Apple itself is probably making an iPad 2 release in that time period is for competition. Steve jobs would love to gloat about finishing production of a second model, while all his competitors havent even completely released a first. This would give consumers a second thought on which tablet to buy. The one that is most up to date, or a first generation?

That concludes my thoughts on the iPad 2 release, we can summarize what you can expect Is;

-A model roughly the same size as the first generation iPad

-Face-time

-A camera.

These three updates are most likely to appear along with the ipad 2 in its release because ;

-It was announced during that time period

-its lacking features its counter-parts have

-a commercial for it has been already shot

-Most importantly Steve Jobs just loves being ahead of the competition.
