IGN has a good summary of what to expect when the iPad 2 eventually comes out, if that is even the plan. It makes sense, though, that Steve Jobs would first get the iPad 2 into a pre-production cycle and then take a leave of absence. And, lately, these rumors have proved accurate. (Inc. Tech will have our own report on the iPad 2 and what we think it will be like coming up in a week or two.) From the IGN report:

“Though Apple executives may refuse to talk about it, the introduction of a new and improved iPad is all but a certainty. Every year like clockwork, Apple updates their biggest product lines with new designs and new features, and the iPad is next in line. Fortunately, pre-announcement rumors are equally consistent, and we’ve already caught wind of a number of tidbits regarding Apple’s next tablet.”
