Apple iPad 2 snapped in all its skinny glory

Go on, take a look. You know you want to...

A raft of pictures purporting to show the iPad 2 have popped up on the web just hours before the updated tablet will to be unveiled.

The snaps come from Chinese-language site DGtle, which undoubtedly has access to the nation's notoriously leaky electronics factories. As we've seen many times before - most recently with the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, the PlayStation phone - kit goes walkies and ends up on the shelves of retailers in China's Shenzhen district.

Do these shots, then, show the real thing? Could well be - though we can't rule out a mock-up constructed on the back of the many, many rumours that have flown around concerning the new iPad.

Apart from the claimed SD slot, this boy has them all.

Here they are:

'Yawn'?

'No one cares'

Are you quite sure about that? The fact that Apple sold millions of the previous model, the world and his/her dog are making a noise about this one and to top it all, you yourself are commenting on a post about it.

Still sure no one cares?

"[...] must have accessory [...]"

Uh, did I miss something? No, this certainly is not a must have accessory. Maybe a "hey I have tons of money laying around to blow on a toy accessory" but little else.

Skinny glory? Looks quite thick to me! Classing it as skinny because its narrow at the edges isn't a valid argument. Thats like saying i'm skinny because my fingers are a lot less narrow than my bulging waist.
