Apple is continuing their series of Peter Coyote voiced iPad 2 commercials, this time with We’ll Always, which shows why “We’ll never stop doing the things we love, but with the iPad we’ll do them in amazing new ways.”

We’ll never stop sharing our memories or getting lost in a good book. We’ll always cook dinner and cheer for our favorite team. We’ll still go to meetings, make home movies and learn new things. But how we do all this will never be the same.

No “magical” mentions but Photos, iBooks, a recipe app, MLB, a video conferencing app, iMovie, and an educational writing app get the spotlight. It’s another solid spot, filled with “Kodak moments” that show why Apple is moving tens of millions of these devices through a combination of brand, build, and pitch-perfect advertising.

T-Mobile has put up a new web page taking shots at AT&T and iPad 2 when it comes to their LG G-Slate Android Honeycomb tablet.

The Android™-powered T-Mobile® G-Slate™ with Google™ is more than two times faster than the Apple iPad 2 on AT&T and Verizon, and three times faster than the Motorola Xoom on Verizon—and it’s less expensive, too! See all the ways this entertainment powerhouse leaves the competition in the dust.

Speed claim based on comparison of devices on T-Mobile's 4G HSPA+ 42 Mbps network, AT&T's HSPA+ network, and Verizon's 3G network.

iPad 2 doesn’t run on Verizon’s LTE network, so fair enough. But does it leave iPad 2 “in the dust?” I tried to do some research on the G-Slate to see just how killer a device it was, but — based on their tag page — even Android Central hasn’t written about it since April.

My daughter asked me to buy her this game for her iPod touch yesterday. As we share the same account, I installed it on my iPhone and absolutely love it! It is a really fun and addictive game and could be the next huge iOS release. Of course there is always a downside; it is not a universal binary. The developer decided to release two versions; one for the iPhone and iPod touch and an HD version for the iPad. If you are still on the fence, take a look at the video after the break!
