Apple may have sold 15 million first-version iPads, but the company isn't resting on its laurels. Steve Jobs has just announced the iPad 2 in San Francisco and there will be a white version as well as a black one. But what do we think of it at first glance? However, iPad 2 isn't the extreme makeover many were expecting. The device costs the same as the current iPad ($499 in the US) and comes with the same 16, 32 and 64GB memory configurations. The iPad 2 UK release date is 25 March, so expect it to start from £439 as before, unless we're really going to get done over in the UK. The main physical thing is that the new iPad is thinner - 33 per cent thinner, clocking it at 8.8mm, or thinner than the iPhone 4 (which clocks in at 9.3mm).
