“iPhone 4 Confirmed to Have 512MB of RAM”
Well, hallefuckinglujah. (In other terms, it’s about time.) Makes sense to have a more decent amount of memory if you’re gonna want to edit 720p video on the device, but — would it have killed them to do the same on the iPad?
It’s gonna be a serious bummer for developers to be limited in what they can do on the iPad because of RAM for the next couple of years (regardless of next year’s inevitable hardware upgrade, applications will have to remain backwards-compatible for a while unless they have a damn good reason not to be), when the iPhone introduced a couple months later has a more comfortable amount of memory.
We always knew that next year’s iPad would be more powerful than this year’s, and that was okay. But this timeline doesn’t work for me.
