We’re quite surprised about this report from the Wall Street Journal about the rumored iPad 2. The report spoke of the production of the device which actually added up to existing rumors.

WSJ said that this next generation of Apple’s famous tablet is gifted with a faster processor and a better GOU. Not to mention larger memory space enclosed in a thinner and lighter package. The presence of the front-facing camera is also said to be incorporated on the deivice. With this, FaceTime is not far behind.

As for the availability, WSJ said that the new iPad will be shipping via giant networks like Verizon and AT&T.

Kevin Rose: Apple to Announce iPad 2 on Feb 1

Kevin Rose, one of the industry’s prominent blogger, claimed today that iPad 2 will be landing in “3-4 weeks” and will feature a Retina Display in addition to dual cameras.

“I have it on good authority that Apple will be announcing the iPad 2 in the next “3-4 weeks”, possibly Tuesday February 1st. The iPad 2 will feature a retina display and front/back cameras.”

Apple doing a double on pixels of the iPad would make the iPad 2 screen bigger. The previous pixel count is 1024 x 768; now it is 2048 x 1536, quite a big push. The resolution seems to be a bit too high for a 9.7 inch display.

Update: Rose updated his blog post to say it’s not a Retina Display but instead is higher resolution screen with more dots per inch (DPI).
