With all the talk about the demise of the home button on the iPad 2, why isn't anyone mentioning that this case clearly has a place for the home button?
Small steps... get us used to the gestures before we have to use them. Personally I hope the home button stays. For your resets and screen grabs it has other valuable purposes which can't be replicated in software as effectively.

No need for a flash. Any camera on the back of an iPad is for Augmented Reality or barcode scanning - just like with the iPod touch - it's not for photography.

I have to say that when lying in bed resting the device on your chest, having the earphone port on the top is the correct position.
Surely if MiniDP makes an appearance it'd be on the "bottom", close to the dock base?
Perhaps the presence of the MiniDP, if true and let's face it the evidence is sparse, means that actually the 'internal' screen will be the same resolution and actually the new @2x images that have turned up are for external use only. But then who has a spare 2048 x1536 display lying around...
Still whatever gets released it's Apple getting all the headlines just as following CES we're all probably supposed to be talking about the amazing Android tablets we've seen demo'd :-)
And, I disagree that it would be great for impromptu presentations. I think it would be extremely cumbersome to have to hold a tablet with a big cable sticking out of it. How many people are using the VGA cable now to do this?
What would be great for presentations is using an iPhone + AirPlay.
What I need more than a way to physically connect the iPad to a projector, is a way to output the screen display of the iPad itself. I don't need to play YouTube during a meeting, I need to mirror the iPad display itself like Jobs does at Apple. I do a fair bit of enterprise type iPad training but it is impossible to demonstrate to a group of users without that feature. The irony is it is an iOS limitation. I'd love a display port output but without mirroring it does nothing for me.
Mini-USB or Micro-USB? I think the EU ruling is for Micro-USB, but do digitial cameras come with Mini-USB cables, and aren?t those only the smaller USB on the camera?s end of the cable but USB-A on the computer end?
PS: To muddle the waters even more, are we talking about A, B or AB?
That kind of fragmentation belongs on the Android platform.
Excellent point. I did fail to account for the pins. DVI and DP use even more, if I remember correctly.
PS: At some point they will have to transition to optical on these devices. It might be okay for 64GB for syncing data, but what happens when get to larger storage sizes. I?m hoping they will find some way to do a hybrid cooper and optical port like the kind propsed for USB-A with LightPeak optical built in.
Good point. I was thinking LightPeak would be the reason for Apple abstaining from USB3.0 when they adopt drafts of other standards. Not sure about the position though.
I still don't get this obsession with ports/cables on mobile device. Portables, fine but the iPad/Pod/Phone are mobile, you can't use them well with cables sticking out.
HDMI especially has no case, it makes no sense to leave the iPad beside the TV. More sense to have the iPad near you but you'd need a dock>HDMI connector with a 5m+ cable & booster - may as well get an ATV.
I have an experience to share with you guys. Once I was in a remote place, my signal in my phone got jammed, i thought the problem would be with my service provider. After coming back home i gave black and blues to my customer care highlighting my issue. They pleaded me saying that the problem is not with them. Then i browsed through the search engine regarding my issue, i got a remedy for my cell phone, there i came to know the problem called signal jamming that is experienced in most cell phones. They have a product called signal jammer could be very useful to get rid of these problems. Check out the details here cell phone jammer and hope this information would be beneficial. Hope that u would pass this information to all your friends, so that they too would benefited, Stay safe, Cheers

Any business can have AirPlay for $99.
