I don't think that's it. Most people here aren't really here to seek help, but to join a community of other iPad fans, and read up on what is new.

I think younger people may be on the go more, and be more content with their iPod touch or iPhone. Plus older people would tend to have a little more income.

I have two children with ipads, ages 19 and 28 and they would both tell you they just have better things to do than sitting reading a forum!

*Cough* I think my fiancée would say the same thing....I guess it's different in my case. What else am I supposed to do at work?

Wow, the demographic here is quite different than the car forum that I help to admin. I'm actually a youngster at 43 here.

I bought an iPad 16GB last week and will get my new iPhone 4 on June 27. And iVan, I owned a '57 Chevy when it was new.

So you owned a new '57 Chevy when you were 13? I don't think so. ;-)

You're right. My Dad bought it when I was 13, but I learned to drive it and used it to qualify for my Calif Driving Test. I was wondering if someone was going to catch that error. Blast all you youngsters with your memories!

I showed up for a group ATV ride from that forum and found out I was the old one. At 45 I was double most of the ages, and many couldn't even go to a bar yet. But here I'll enjoy being middle of the road to younger.

Great survey, and the results just keep getting better every day.

It's the same for me at my WRX (car) forum. Sometimes I struggle to understand what some of them are saying, yo!

I am 48, I find most of my friends do not need assistance at all. We grew up through the technical revolution. My first calculator was a slide ruler, learned many assemble languages, then languages like FORTRAN, Pascal, C .... and if continues. Computer were huge things in universities and evolved to the iPad. One thing has been constant all these decades I have been and alway will be the geek that need the latest gadget.
