If true, then I think that this is going to bomb big time. $500 is bad enough for a tablet. If the iPad2 is not discounted to around $350, then I am going to take another look at the Nook or the Kindle.
Prediction:
iPad 3 - $399
iPad 2 - $299
Maybe this is just wishful thinking on my part. Actual prices could be
$50-100 higher.

I was talking with Marty M. He said since the beginning of the new year or in the last few weeks the throughput here in the office has gone up considerably. He is getting 1 Mbit and 1 Mbit up sitting at his desk on his iPad. He ran the test in my cubicle also. They must of activated a new tower nearby recently. I can barely get 33 kbits on T-Mobile sitting at my desk unless I go outside, then I get comparable to what he is getting. But for 99% of stuff I’m too lazy to walk outside just so I can download something that’s big. Which is probably a good thing for not getting distracted.
