Hey Joe here, glad to have found this forum! I found it by accident actually.. I typed in google, "why do I hate my iPad", and this forum came up.. Not sure if thats a good thing, but I'm here... And btw, I don't hate my iPad, just wondered who did and why...

I just bought an iPad 3rd generation about a week ago... Been contemplating on returning it... So much money, but it is a nice peice of hardware..

32gig, 4G Verizon.. Out the door was $894, with the 2 year protection plan...

I'm looking forward to finding out if I should keep it based on the replies I get from here...

And if I do keep it, looking forward to getting some real cool apps for it..


Take care

Joe

Yup, I'm on the PC typing this, because I have no idea how to get to this post within that app yet... LOL! Thankfully this forum supports multiple log-ins from different locations so I can reply here, and on the ipad at the same time... hahaha
