It looks like the voice dictation does require an Internet connection. Given the amount of RAM and processing that full continuous speaker-independent speech voice recognition requires I am not surprised. http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/07/apple-new-ipad-hands-on/ > Update: ... the Voice Dict

No Siri because they do a Wifi-only iPad. Think about it. No Thunderbolt because … seriously, the 40-pin connector is called a 40-pin connector because it has 40 pins, some of which are used for stuff you couldn't do with Thunderbolt. So, yeah, it doesn't come with a Moon Pony. On Thu, Mar 8, 20

Interesting how you call it "more of the same" and then list all sorts of new things that were not in the older one. A new much faster processor. A new much higher density display. A new camera (which is more than a slight upgrade). And LTE connectivity. All that is "new." Apple is not a
