		oldstrangers on March 2, 2011 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: IPad 2 Official Specs It's amazing how Apple can repackage technology that has been widely available in laptops for years and convince everyone that it's "going to be big." And I'm sure it will be... Just makes me feel like I'm going crazy though (as I type this on a laptop connected to a 24" HD monitor via HDMI).

Well the reason they convince everyone that it's going to be big is because of how they repackage it. That has been the case from the iPod on and again here with HDMI. As others have mentioned, I don't need anything more than just my iPad for HDMI presentations now.
