The Apple conference started with an empty seat and nobody knows who will present and announce this event IPad 2 launchedAs we all know Steve Jobs is on sick leave, and he told us in an article (Absence of Steve Jobs and the future of AppleSteve Jobs' failure to attend the iPad 2 launch event may negatively affect Apple.

But the surprise was, and Steve Jobs appeared on the stage, and he expressed his appearance despite his illness that they worked hard for this day and he would never miss. (This appearance of Steve Jobs is a denial of the many rumors that have been circulated that his condition is dangerous)

Steve began by listing some facts like that there are more than 200 million iTunes users

That the total income of software developers so far has reached 2 billion dollars, and that Apple has sold 100 million iPhones so far, other than the iPod Touch, of course.

Steve Jobs mocked Samsung, which proudly announced that it had sold 2 million devices from the Galaxy Tablet, and proudly said that our sales were brutal. On the other hand, Apple sold 15 million iPads in just nine months, and therefore Apple's share of the tablet device market is 90%, and the Apple iPad sales number is greater than the number of sales of all tablets combined that were sold in the world, isn't that amazing!

He also told Steve Jobs that the number of applications prepared to work for the iPad has reached 65 applications, while some devices such as the BlackBerry tablet have only 100 applications.

And Steve Jobs showed pictures of the iPad and its uses ...

It was a touching presentation, especially when Apple mentioned that the iPad helps children with disabilities learn… Indeed, the iPad has entered many areas.

In the end, Steve tells that 2010 has been the year of imitation, as everyone is copying and copying Apple.

What about the year 2011? What are we going to cash out for our competitors to imitate :)

IPad 2 (All-New Design)

The new iPad carries a new processor from Apple, the A5

  • The new dual core processor
  • Twice faster

  • It does not consume much energy

The new design is very thin, its thickness is 8.6 mm, while the first generation was 13.2 mm, which is 33% thinner

He's so thin even compared to the iPhone 4 :), imagine how he'll be skinny?

Meanwhile, you can charge the device
Information, this wonderful connection will work with the iPad 4st generation, iPhone 4 and iPod touch XNUMX
(I imagine that with this feature, many devices that contain Apple devices, such as Touch tables)

Just as Apple made a case for the iPad last year, this year Apple created a new case

It is fixed to the device by means of a magnet

It comes in ten colors

They are $ 39 for plastic and $ 69 for leather
