It has just been confirmed that the new iPhone 4 does indeed have twice the RAM that both the iPhone 3Gs and the iPad have been equipped with. It has 512MB of RAM, for a phone . . . that is a lot.

The iPhone 3G contains 128MBs and was then, for the iPhone 3Gs model, pumped up to 256MB. What really confounds me is why the iPad was allotted this same 256MB and not 512 like the iPhone 4.

This leaves me with one real conclusion: the next iPad will be stocked. I’m hoping on two cameras, 512MB of RAM, and basically all the same features the iPhone 4 has currently (those same features that should have been debuted in the iPad.  . .but apple knows how to market its releases well).

The 512 was confirmed during the WWDC and will help the iPhone 4 with its ability to run a skimmed down version of iMovie.
