The silly season: Two fun, fan-made videos of the iPad 2

With all the buzz of anticipation of the iPad2 expected release on March 2nd I thought it would be fun to put up a couple of videos circulating the Internets on just what to expect.

The first one by Exkild is a full and detailed explanation of all the new magical features of the new 27" device. My favorite part of this 6:45 tour is expaining the new features in iTunes which will automatically download good music, delete bad music and if it finds a song by Justin Bieber, it self-destructs.

The second one is a 1:45 action movie opus made by Evan Larimore, a guy who is really into movies. A huge iPad2 with the eye of HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey descends from space and wreaks havoc in the hand-held style of Cloverfield.

Take a look. They're bound to give you a chuckle or two.

Excellent representation of product features if Microsoft owned Apple.

Second video is pretty amazing. Nice effects with, what I assume, is after effects.

My first thought was that it was a video, and everything was timed perfectly. Extremely well done!

Exkild showing off what a 27-inch iPad 2 might look like any less funny.

Using the iMac as a cutting board was very painful

If you watch the (film) cuts carefully, you'll see that only time the knife touches the surface of the glass, it's in an extreme close-up that probably used a stunt-glass, not the iMac/iPad2 itself.

Wow. Those are amazing. Those look at least twice as good as any of the competitor's ads... that they paid millions for.
