Apple iPad Air 2 is thinner, but not much else is new
The most obvious feature of Apple's new iPad Air 2, which the company introduced today, is exactly what you'd expect: It's thinner than its predecessor at 0.24 inches. But the latest member of Apple's tablet lineup doesn't break a whole lot of new ground technologically.

The original iPad Air measured just 0.29 inches thick. Apple's engineers managed to shave a touch more off by eliminating the layer of air in between each of the three layers of the display--the LCD, the touch layer, and the glass. Weight remains under one pound.
