512MB RAM?
Dunno, you'd better ask iPad owners - only 512MB of RAM in the iPad 2, think that's quite a popular gadget at the moment!
Can't say it's every really bothered me on my iPad, apart from the apparent lack of page caching in Safari, which I suspect is not entirely hindered by RAM.
Look at the website
And you'll see that the "Pro" version has a capacitive screen.
I refuse to enoble a simple forum post!
Am I alone in thinking it sounds like something a laydee might buy for when the painters are in?
What's with the relative camera resolutions...
"It also has front- and rear-facing cameras - 0.3Mp and 2Mp respectively"
I might imagine that whilst on 'chat' you would not wish your target to see you are an ugly fuck but... You wish to deliver higher resolution pictures of your genital paraphernalia?
Is this some sort of Web2.0 concept?
