iPad 2 officially launches in US

Posted: 11 Mar 2011 04:46 AM PST

The Apple iPad 2 has been released to the great unwashed in the US, with Apple stores in America stocking the device as of 4PM Eastern Time today and Apple.com shipping orders, although these are set to take three to five days to get to homes.

Alongside the launch, Apple is offering up its Geniuses to set up the iPad 2 for customers so that things like emails are ready to use on the device.

To be honest, as long as Angry Birds is loaded on to it that should keep the masses happy.

As with all of Apple's core launches, there were queues outside the flagship stores, with Apple lovers braving the rain in New York to be among the first to touch an iPad 2.

Those back in Blighty will have to wait two more weeks for the iPad 2 UK release date, which is set for 25 March.

For those hiding under an Android-shaped rock, the iPad 2 comes with an Apple A5 chip, is 33 per cent thinner and has two cameras for all your FaceTime needs.

If you don't fancy the iPad 2, then Apple kindly released iOS 4.3 this week to give your original iPad an OS spruce.
