Same RAM speed. Similar screen resolution. Dual core GPU would make the iPad better for games and video than the MacBook Air though. Now to nitpick, 512MB is the same as iPhone 4, why not more? I hope they use 1GB instead. And please, bump the screen to 1440x900 resolution for crisper text, after using iPhone 4 the iPad screen looks quite pixelated. Finally, lets hope they make 64GB of local storage a minimum. Apps are getting larger and larger, HD videos are huge, add in photos and music libraries and you find 64GB is a bare minimum.
