Speculation is that it'll launch on the iPad's launch anniversary: April 3, and that Foxconn has already been asked (the article uses the term ordered) to have market-ready quantities ready by the end of February 2011. The Journal says that there will be at least a front-facing camera and a higher resolution (but not Retina) screen. Rumors include an SD card slot, thinner and lighter, a faster graphics processor, more memory, and two cameras. </p>
