What’s iMovie? Some app to watch movie on your iPhone and iPad? No, according to Apple “iMovie makes it easy to turn your home videos into your all-time favorite films. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll watch them over and over again. And you’ll share them with everyone.” Now, the laughter and the tears will be heading to your iPad 2 on March 11.

Yes, in addition to the announcement of the magical iPad 2, Steve Jobs also unveiled iMovie for iPad. So now, you can also be a director of home-made kinky videos using simple tools on your new dual-core tablet anywhere you go. Especially useful when the iPad 2 has a front and back camera, so that any angles can be easily taken too. This new version will have a precision editor, multitrack audio recording, some brand new themes, AirPlay to Apple TV, and the ability to share videos in HD. It’ll be available on March 11th (the same day as the new iPad) for $4.99.

Besides iMovie, Apple’s also announced GarageBand for iPad. I guess the name says it all. The app will boast several touch instruments, guitar amps and effects, 8-track recording and mixing, over 250 loops, the ability to email your AAC files, and it’s compatible with the Mac version. GarageBand for iPad will also run you $4.99 when it’s released on March 11th.
