San Francisco, CA -- Great news! Apple releases it’s second generation, highly acclaimed iPad on March 11, 2011. Apple announced several new features to make the iPad 2 thinner, lighter, and more productive. The new iPad is literally carbon-thin paper with a lightweight stainless steel binding.
Improvements in the second-generation device largely tracked with the rumors preceding its introduction. It is one-third thinner than its predecessor - slimmer than the iPhone 4 - and 15 percent lighter. Apple did this by completely removing all circuits and electronics from the iPad. “It looks like a regular notepad now, and acts like one” stated one avid Apple fan.
"We think 2011 is clearly going to be the year of iPad 2," said Jobs, after walking onstage to a standing room.
Jobs' onstage appearance sent Apples stock up about $3. It closed at $352.12, up 0.8 percent for the day.
"We've been working on this product awhile, and I didn't want to miss today," said Jobs.
