RAM not mentioned (so it's probably not increased).




Does Apple normally include how much RAM iOS devices have on their site? It doesn't seem to be:

Maybe the increased the memory, maybe not. But that doesn't seem to be a good indicator.


iMovie refused to run on the iPad 1 because the RAM was only 256. iMovie only ran on the iPhone 4, because it had 512 megabytes of RAM.

We can safely conclude that the iPad 2 has at least 512 megabytes of RAM, because iMovie requires that much.

I daresay RAM will be increased to 1 gigabyte (if not already) when the retina display for iPad debuts. 4x resolution requires more RAM, as I've noticed on the iPod Touch 4.


Apple has never advertised the RAM on an iPhone, iPod, or iPad version.


They surely have as least as much memory as the iphone4—but probably not more than that
