What can it do better than a laptop and for that matter can it do as much ?
well, it's lighter, slimmer, longer battery life, .. but what else.. can someone who owns one enlighten me ?
I have two cameras already.. why would I want an iPad when I have a perfectly good iBook ?

The second generation of the iPad which goes on sale in the UK in March 25 and in the US on March 11, has two cameras, one at the rear and one at the front of the device, both of which take photos and shoot video.
The new device comes preloaded with a new app called photo booth, which allows people to take distorted photos of themselves and share them with friends. And users will also be able to use the iPad 2 to video call friends who also have either an iPad 2, an iPhone 4 or the latest iPod touch, using Apple Facetime.
The iPad2 is one third thinner than the first device and is slightly lighter. It will also be available in white for the first time, as well as the standard black.
Apple has kept the pricing the same, with cheapest model available from $499.
