Or is the world insane? I am having a hard time these days deciding whether I am becoming senile or whether the world is. I see so many wandering idiots, supposedly specialists in their area of labour... How can people be so...eish...voidish....???

Wow. Did not know this... The front facing camera is 640 x 480. The rear facing camera is 960 x 720. Eish... Both are less than 1MP. In fact, they represent 0.3MP and 0.675MP, respectively. In other words, they suck.

Just a quick note on performance, it seems the iPad 2 takes 2114ms versus the iPad 1's 3323ms to complete the SunSpider Benchmark. This translates to much improved JavaScript performance whilst browsing web sites.
