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.
