Apple has been subjected to a lot of criticism due to the sensors that detect the contact of iDevices with liquids, and I say this because in certain parts of the globe where the humidity is high, Apple has canceled warranties due to triggered liquid sensors. iPad 2 will be free from such problems because Apple has decided to remove all liquid sensors from the tablet, at least that's what said to an editor at 9to5mac by an Apple Genius. Apple did not make any reference to removing the sensors that detect contact with liquids, so the change in attitude is more than surprising.
A few years ago, Apple relaxed its attitude regarding the cancellation of warranties for iDevices with triggered liquid sensors. In fact, it is not very important why Apple decided not to implement liquid sensors, the important thing is that now you can "bath" your tablet through the sink without problems. Apple instructs its warranty people to check the slot where the SIM card tray is inserted for signs of corrosion.
