I love the idea Apple is able to put their products on the shelf within two weeks of the announcement!

Great now going have getting calls bout this new ipad again when I go to work. People should use their money to pay bills not wast money on another Apple product

"The iPad matches most rumors and hopes and, boy, those hopes were pretty high."

really?

here are some rumors:
removed the physical home button-nope
increased battery life-nope
camera with flash-nope
camera on par with iphone 4s-nope
e-sense-nope
sprint/tmobile/regional carrier availability-nope
upgraded front facing camera-nope
gorilla glass 2-nope
huge drop in ipad 2 prices ($100 off, cmon)-nope
name is ipad 2s/3/HD- nope, nope, nope

i dont consider any of those to be high hopes, since android tabs with all of those features (besides e-sense) are available now.

the only confirmed rumors are:
4g
retina-esque display
same price point as ipad 2
a5x dualcore processor
siri (maybe?)

The "new ipad" which most likely will become the ipad 2s is a total waste of money, just like super said above spend the extra 100-300 dollars for an actual laptop, it will do you more good in the long run.
