iPad 2 video gets out from CES
iPad 2′s running wild, it seems. Following a picture appearing on the internet of the tablet follow-up from CES, a video’s now emerged of a mock-up from the show.
The video shows off the grill at the bottom of the device, with a camera at the top.
A picture of the casing for the device appeared online on Friday, with a protective case for it also shown in Vegas last week.
Apple hasn’t formally announced anything yet about an iPad 2, but it’s been reported that retail employees at the company have been restricted in taking any holidays between the last week of January and the first part of February, which seems to indicate an announcement might be on the way.
Video’s below.

Oh look, it’s another needlessly expensive product from Apple!

Yup LMAO at the people who just bought one. Man I don’t know who’s more stupid. The XBOTS for buying multiple 360s after RROD after hardware failure or the APPLE BOTS who love standing in a long ass line just to purchase over priced products when the next version is due out in 6months and has better hardware features.

Or people who referred to anyone who own an Xbox or Apple product as XBOTS or APPLE BOTS.
Top satire, that.

Apple fans and PS3 fans have lots in common. Both sets love to rejoice when their product they paid too much for gets a standard feature by way of a firmware update a year or two after everyone else.
Both defend the companies they love, become aggressive when challenged, and have a misguided sense of brand loyalty.
Both sets believe that everything released exclusively for the product will be awesome, and they can’t wait. Even though they’ve never had any hands-on time whatsoever.
Both sets have a sycophantic respect for the company CEO.
Loads and loads.

There’s zero reason to laugh at people who bought an Ipad. My father has one and he uses it all the time, i remember when he told me he bought one and i asked him ‘Why dad? It’s just a bigsized Ipod Touch’ and he explained me what kinds of stuff he does with it and then i understood it.
So even though i might not buy one (can’t afford one mind you) , who am i to say he shouldn’t have bought it when he’s clearly immensely enjoying it? And don’t call people Xbots and Apple bots, you are just as bad as the fanboys out there when you do so. Just call them fanboys, that’s enough. Also..i never had to buy another Xbox 360, i might have had the rrod two or three times, i sent it to MS and i received another one.

The font of “iPad 2″ label is definitely not Myriad Pro. Lame fake.
How difficult is that to pick the right font?

if iPad had FLASH support I would bought one. Its great to have it around the house to check email, browse web, etc, no need to carry heavy laptops or bulky netbooks. But I think ill wait till android 3.0 comes out with a good tablet.

The ambient sound is kinda strange. It just doesn’t fit. Sounds more like a football match.

Was it just me or did anyone think the background music of crowds cheering is completely FAKE!

@6 and @7 It’s clearly not an iPad 2, the idea of what you saw in the video, is for case manufacturers to understand the design of the next iPad. Fucking tards.

Any chance of a “not Apple” tag? Even Gizmodo offers that.

Why has this place spiraled into doucheville lately?
