[QUOTE="jacksonian, post: 1201301, member: 152486"] I have both the original and iPad 2 in front of me. The Apple ads are pretty accurate--faster, thinner, lighter, FaceTime. That about sums it up. The faster processor and increased RAM make a noticeable difference. On the original, I had certain web pages (forums with tons of high res pictures) that would take forever to load and then wouldn't show all the images (left blue boxes with a ?). But the iPad 2 fixes that. Loading USAToday or The Daily is virtually instantaneous now. Is it an, OMG you're insane if you don't upgrade kind of thing? Well, no, the original is still awesome and quite capable. But the difference with the second one is quite noticeable. I'd say it's quite similar to my experience of going from the iPhone 3G to the 3GS. I didn't plan to do that upgrade, but when I saw how much faster the 3GS was, it was a done deal. [/QUOTE]
