    All I'm going to say is that it is the best device I ever bought but if you're gonna buy one I would probably wait a few weeks because the iPad 2 shouldn't be too far away.

    Do a search for "iPad". It has been done lots of times before

    Sorry, there is a few alright. Try searching for "buying ipad" - that should narrow it down a bit:D

    A lot of these are very subjective. It is really back to the old question of what you want to do with the iPad.

    Good points:

    Lurvely screen
    Slick user interface
    Great for reading

    And everything else to do with the iPhone

    Bad points:

    Portability, or lack thereof
    As you tend to use more websites, you tend to miss Fash a little bit
    Not very good in direct sunlight (then again what tablet is)

    I could go on and on about it but best keep it simple; it's the best device I've bought in a long, long time.

    Good:
    UI
    Apps
    Support
    *closed ecosystem

    Bad
    Sun glare
    *closed ecosystem
    cant upgrade storage


    Ugly
    No flash support


    *Depends how you look at it.

    The only real problem I have with mine is the lack of Flash.

    Otherwise it's a great device.
