Some more details have apparently leaked out about that tablety thing that Apple is supposedly announcing on March 2nd. Apparently some of the long rumored additions won’t be hitting the next version of the iPad. The SD card slot? That one’s out. But let’s face it, Steve Jobs never really cared for those things anyway. Also off the menu is the hi-res display (which some sources were suggesting would actually be a large version of the Retina Display offered on the last version of the iPhone).
Engadget is citing some anonymous-type sources on this thing, who claim that the lack of the aforementioned features comes down to last minute “engineering issues,” sources that have apparently been “dead right” in past Apple rumor claims. Bummer.
On the plus side, the iPad 2 will reportedly sport a thinner design, a larger screen size, more RAM, a souped up A5 processor, and at least one camera (likely two–on in front and one in back).
