I never understood the scene some people makes about having USB ports on the iPad. I bought the Camera Kit which gives you both USB and SD card ports and used it to import movies and pics from cameras.
There are SD and USB ports if you used the camera kit, the problem is the software, not the ports. The only thing the ipad allows with the ports is to import pics and movies.
Who's bashing the form factor? I'll be buying an iPad 2 as soon as they're available (see sig). I just think the cover is dorky. It's giving a tablet 'notebook-like' functions that it doesn't need.
Maybe I read into your comment, didn't see your sig either.
I'm not into the cover, but I'm sure it'll sell. We used our iPad 1 mostly without a cover except when flying.
As for providing extra functions - why not? If your'e out in world with your cover and your job requires you to turn it on and off all the time I'm all for a cover that saves your from having to slide to unlock.

IF THE WHOLE WORLD USED MINI USB PORTS FOR EVERY DAMN DEVICE THEN ALL THOSE TONS OF USELESS GARBAGE WIRE WOULD SLOWLY GO AWAY and we would . one world standard

But I thought Apple signed a commitment to adopt microUSB?

Besides, Apple ripped off the Japanese

iPad 2 comes as a white tablet (the back of the samsung tab doesn't count because its on the back)
iPad 2 is the thinner than any dual-core tablet (even really thin smartphones!)
iPad 2 has a 9X improvement in graphics (even though people may not care about specs it will look good)
iPad 2 comes with thousands of apps
iPad 2 has smart covers (they really stole my heart cause I want things made out of space suit material and I like magnets)
But...
What if iPad 2 had 20GB, 40GB, and 80GB?
What if iPad 2 had a Thunderbolt chip through the 30 pin connector?
Please Discuss:

Well I guess that blows my argument out of the water
Mr Jobs will be laughing all the way to the bank http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/tag/smart-cover/

This was the one feature outside a front facing camera that I really hoped would happen, even though it was a really outside chance.
It seems likely that next year's model will be thunderbolt, retina and other madness.
