John Gruber from DaringFireball, stated that his sources say the iPad 2 will keep the same 1024×768 resolution that is on the current iPad.

Its display may be improved in other ways — brighter, better power consumption, thinner, perhaps. Maybe it uses the new manufacturing technique Apple introduced with the iPhone 4 display, which brings the LCD closer to the surface of the touchscreen glass — making it look more like pixels on glass rather than pixels under glass. But my sources are pretty sure that it’s not 2048 × 1536 or any other “super high resolution”.

He also says the iPad 2 will have the 3GS style update, which is better internals like CPU and RAM, but will keep the same screen resolution.
This is a disappointment to all of us that was looking forward to the new iPad 2, I guess the cameras and faster CPU be enough to shell out $500+ to upgrade. What do you think, sound off in the comments
