Hi Johnnie, the iPad is different from iPad2Â in many aspect like the processor, RAM, weight, internal memory, camera, HDMI, Bluetooth tethering, and price.Â
The new iPad is a modest revolutionary upgrade, that is why it is called iPad not iPad3 because it is for the majority of people who want to buy their first iPad.
I will show you the difference and similarities of iPad,iPad 2 and iPad 3.

Thanks.
The iPad 2 and iPad 3 look so similar, the only real difference is the lack of a button on the front of the iPad 3 and that it's a bit thicker and heavier, otherwise they share the same iconic iPad design and if you put them next to each other you might think at a glance you were looking at the same product.
To compare the two, I will highlight the main features of configuration;
Hardware
Apple's iPad 2 has dual core setup with a 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor on the company's own A5 chipset, this also uses a PowerVR SGX543MP2 graphics processing unit (GPU) and there's 512MB of RAM built in.
The iPad 3 is built on latest A5X chipset with a quad core graphics processor which makes it super fast.
Display
iPad 3's screen  is 9.7 -inches,but unlike the iPad 2 it has a full size Retina IPS LED-backlit display with a 2048×1536 pixel resolution at 264ppi.
iPad 2 features the same 9.7-inch expanse of LED-backlit IPS glass  with a 1024×768 pixel resolution and a pixel density of 132ppi.
Camera
The iPad 3 has Apple's new iSight camera design, already found in the iPhone 4S, has a 5-megapixel back-light illuminated sensor (BSI) and a five-stage lens. It has excellent video and image stabilization, autofocus and auto-exposure control.
Apple's iPad 2 has a very lackluster camera setup at 0.7-megapixels, with a 960 x 720 pixel resolution, 720p video capture and a VGA secondary for FaceTime calls
Summarized comparison of the two is as shown in this image;
