Apple has debuted its new iPad.

The new version of the device, which some are calling the iPad 2, will be thinner and lighter than its predecessor, down to 1.3 pounds from 1.5.

As many speculated it will also have front and rear-facing cameras designed for video chatting.
Unlike Apple’s popular iPhone 4, it will also be available in white.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs made the announcement Wednesday in San Francisco. He says the new i-pad will be dramatically faster than the earlier version.
