I "owned" two iPad 2s but returned them both due to significant light-leak. I currently own an iPad 1 that I bought because I was over spending time, gas and $$ on janky iPad 2 screens.

My thoughts.. I honestly like the iPad 2 more. IMO it is easier to hold without propping on something. I like the weight and feel of the hardware. It is faster with regards to web/apps/games. It might only be seconds but it is enough to bug me already.

Right now there is a 75% chance I will be returning the iPad 1 to BB and diving back into the madness that is finding a non-janky-screen iPad 2.
Did the screen really bother you that much to go through all those trouble?

Yes. I had one iPad 2 with 8-9 splotches visible at 50%. The other one had 8 splotches plus a screen that was starting to separate at the bottom.
 
Useless poll?

Yes and Yes.

Other ideas for awesome polls...

Do you own an iPad?

How many hands do you have?

Which is your favorite finger to touch the iPad with?

Breathe in and out or out and in?

Interesting to see this level of wit in the form of such sarcasm. Would hate to be your spouse who has to put up with such cynicism.

The original iPad lacks so many features. The iPad 2 looks cooler, is lighter, way faster graphics, thinner, has gyroscope, faster wifi, faster 3G, etc, etc. The original iPad should have been the prototype.
 
I had an iPad 1, but I sold it and bought an iPad 2. Comparing the weight between my iPad 1 and iPad 2... I can't tell the difference. The iPad 2 just feels thinner to me... but I can't tell the weight difference between the two. Personally, I liked how everything plugged into the iPad 1 on a flat surface. It doesn't seem like it's a very strong connection when plugging things (30 pin, headphone jack) into the iPad 2's angled surface. I wouldn't have minded if the iPad 2 had the same casing as the iPad 1... just as long as it has the updated features of the iPad 2. The thickness and the weight doesn't really bother me.
