Just a reminder that when the new ones come out, you'll be able to use video Skype or Facetime to speak to friends and family all over the world and potentially even get them to tell you what colour shirt you've just dragged out of the wardrobe. But that's not for a few weeks yet. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Barry Toner Sent: 04 March 2011 15:08 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Apple knocks £100 off iPads as iPad 2 launch approaches - Telegraph Hi, I'm not int he market for an Ipad but this is a huge, and I mean huge deal!

Go on fill your boots! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/apple/8361093/Apple-knocks-100-off-iPads-as-iPad-2-launch-approaches.html Apple fans who don't want an iPad 2 will be able to snap up a bargain after the company cut prices on the first generation iPad. The iPad 2 is thinner and lighter than its predecessor but contains a new processor that Jobs said was twice as fast as the first generation model. It also has two cameras - one on the front and another on the back. Response to the iPad 2 has been generally positive. Sarah Rotman Epps, a Forrester analyst, said: "For now, Apple still defines the tablet market, with a product customers will desire at a price that is hard to beat." Apple launched the tablet in the US at Easter last year and sold almost 15 million iPads worldwide in 2010.
