iPad2 vs iPad3
Q1:
What are the differences between iPad2 & iPad3?
Q2:
Over at my country, if I can get iPad2 at US$180 cheaper
than iPad3, which one would you get?
Q3:
Is there a comprehensive warranty that we can buy to
cover against accidental screen crack? If there's none,
is there a special screen protector which can protect
the screen from cracking in the event an iPad is dropped
from a height of 2meters? I have bad experience of a
touchscreen netbook which cracked when dropped from 2meters
Q4:
When is iPad3 scheduled to be available to mass market?
Q5:
Can all apps that previously run on iPad & iPad2 be able to
run on iPad3 without the need to buy the upgraded/newer
version of the app. Specifically I'm looking for one app
(can't recall its name currently ) to teach non-verbal autistic
kid to communicate (by touching an object on iPad, it can
generate a sound). Kid can't speak. If anyone can recall
the name of this product, do let me know. I'm hoping this
app can run on iPhone as well, can it?

one last post:
What's the difference between iPad & iPad2? Video/screen
resolution? Weight & thickness?
Battery-life wise, which of the 3 has the longest battery life
& the batteries can easily be bought & replaced?
With iPad3 out, will Apple drop the price of iPad2 drop (or is this
a general practice of Apple to lower the price of an older model?)

>> What's the difference between iPad & iPad2? Video/screen resolution? Weight &

Yes. See above where we explained it already.
I'm referring to difference betw "iPad1 & iPad2", not "iPad2 & iPad3".
I may consider getting a 'used' iPad1

Bear with me, last post from me:
A) does iPad3 comes with a USB port(s) ?
B) if I don't get the 3G or 4G built-in but decided to use a USB mobile
broadband modem that my Telco provided, will iPad2 or iPad3
support?

> B) only if you can connect to it over wifi
I've seen shops selling broadband router which has USB ports
for 3G USB modems to plug in & then we can use our laptops
to connect to the WiFi service offerred by this broadband router
to browse the Internet via the 3G. Hmm, this broadband router
is quite a bulky device to be carrying around. Unfortunately I've
not come across any 3G USB modem which allows us to connect
to it via WiFi or is there any? Or does any mobile phone offers
such WiFi service?
Just felt it's not worth it to pay almost US$160 more to get the
4G modem

We're well beyond the scope of the original question at this point. You should close this and ask your 3G USB modem questions as a new thread in the hardware section of the site.

Can suggest sample protective covers (that help with screen cracks
due to drops?
Btw, what's the current difference in list price between a 16GB
iPad2 & 16GB iPad3 ?
With iPad3 out, will Apple drop the price of iPad2 drop (or is this
a general practice of Apple to lower the price of an older model?)
