More sources claim iPad 2 will have USB, Retina Display, more

New sources have reported that the upcoming iPad 2 will include 5 new "key" features, ones that will likely boost the tablet's sales exponentially.

If accurate, the reports say the iPad 2 will add a front-facing camera for video conferencing (and FaceTime), USB ports, Retina Display, 3-axis gyroscope and a carbon fiber (lighter/thinnner) body.

The most notable of the features may be the addition of USB ports, which Apple has never added to any of their iOS devices.

Retina Display, seen on fourth-generation iPods and iPhones, enhances image performance and colors.

The 3-axis gyroscopes, paired with the existing accelerometer, should provide game developers a new platform for full six-axis gaming.

While still unconfirmed, the iPad 2 should see an April 2011 release, possibly available in multiple sizes.Permalink | Comments
