Steve Jobs launches Apple's iPad 2
Apple CEO Steve Jobs today took a San Francisco stage to introduce his company's newest iPad.
The new iPad 2 -- the name wags had stuck on the new device, and the one Apple confirmed today -- is faster, thinner and lighter, said Jobs.
But it's not cheaper: Apple will retain the prices of 2010's iPad. The Wi-Fi versions start at $499 for a 16GB model and climb to $699 for a 64GB configuration, while the 3G iPads are priced at $629 to $829.
The iPad 2 will ship March 11 in the U.S., and on March 25 in at least 26 other countries, including Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and the U.K.
Jobs boasted of the iPad 2's new features and components, with the latter including a new dual-core processor -- an Apple-designed chip dubbed the A5 -- that he said doubled the speed of the tablet. Graphics processing, he added, is up to nine times faster.
As most pundits expected, the iPad 2 includes a pair of cameras, one facing the front of the device. The new tablet is 33% thinner, and tips the scales at 1.3 lbs., said Jobs.

Software Industry Overview in Pakistan
 The IT and IT-enabled Services (ITeS) marketplace offers lucrative opportunities for developing countries to join the ranks of the developed world. The scale and pace of growth in this sector is faster than in any other industry, and a number of developing countries are attempting to emulate the success enjoyed by countries such as China, Thailand and India. The Government of Pakistan has been proactively developing the IT sector in Pakistan since the last few years. A few of the incentives offered include tax exemption till 2016, establishment of IT Parks with low rent, foreign ownership of equity invested in IT and 100% repatriation of profit allowed to IT companies. Pakistan’s IT industry has been rising steadily since the last three years. A marked increase in software export figures are an indication of this booming industry’s potential. STATISTICS OF THE PAKISTANI IT/ITES INDUSTRY
The State Bank of Pakistan in its statement for the year 2009-10 reports the export figures of software and IT-enabled services to be US$ 204 million. State Bank of Pakistan adopted BPM 5 reporting system to report the IT exports revenue, which restricted the export figures to US$ 204 million only in 2009-10. In India, the Reserve Bank of India follows the BPM 6 (also called MSITS) Reporting System, which raises its exports to billions of US dollars.
The World Trade Organization (WTO) lists Mode 3, revenue generated by commercial offices overseas, and Mode 4, compensation received by temporary workers who have traveled abroad, as export revenue streams which must be included in trade revenue calculation. There is also strong evidence to suggest that other countries, such as India, in fact employ global services export figures when reporting or estimating revenue. The following table describes the four WTO modes for export-in-services recognition. The need for the four-mode model arises because trade in services is much harder to monitor than trade in physical goods. Physical goods pass through air, sea or land ports, and are accompanied by detailed financial and other documentation. Services trade, on the other hand, can be transacted over the Internet, through post, or through travel of personnel, with revenue flowing into company or personal accounts, which can exist anywhere in the world.
Pakistan offers various competitive advantages over other outsourcing destinations, such as high quality software development, swift and easy establishment of business, lowest cost basis and emerging and state-of-the-art telecommunication and IT infrastructure. Experts estimate an average annual growth of 33% in the sector. This will result in the total IT export revenue crossing US$ 10 billion in the next five years.
