The memory size has been discussed for 3 years on this forum and the arguments are always the same. The iPad is such a great device that it doesn't matter how much memory you have in it; it is still magical and will still do so many many things. If a hundred bucks means very little to you...

Remember 3 years ago the big stink about what a poor name the iPad was and how it was such a ridiculous name that only a few fan boys would ever buy one? The other thing I remember is the concern about the battery and the fact that it would have to be sent back to Apple to replace the battery...

I have a much larger dent on the edge of iPad 1 middle of the side and has not affected operation at all so I think the iPad might be tougher that we think. Kids have all plead ignorant to who could of dropped it, go figure.

I have always believed in buying as much storage as you can afford, but if you are just surfing, doing email and reading books 16gb is a good choice. Myself I think a 128gb that would give me an extra 64 gb for movies and tv shows would be great!!

I have an iPad 1 and have used it for almost 3 years but fell in love with the mini and bought 2 for the family for Christmas. Works great as an ereader; much lighter and thinner than a Kindle Fire and the original iPad.

IMHO the lightning adaptor should replace all the stinking USB plugs in all there assorted shapes!!

What I think you are trying to say is... ;-) Is who cares if Apple sells an iPad or an iPad Mini they both consume apps and that's where the money is!!

Yep it was a nerve wracking Saturday morning, did not get it until 2 PM. Was overjoyed and still happy with my original. Still has great battery life, remember all the crying about how often we would have to replace the battery.

Retina Display ambivalent about this, maybe have it as an option SD card slot I know highly unlikely but would be nice to move files or a movie to a card and take it along USB port I know highly unlikely but would be nice to move files or a movie to a usb thumbdrive and take...

What is interesting is the price point though, couple hundred bucks and I can get one for my kids and they can play games on it in the car and my iPad takes less of a beating. I read on my iPhone all the time with the Kindle app so may be an option. I had no inclination to buy any other iPad...

On the other hand, I find it tremendously exciting that ebooks are finally moving beyond mere text. The new Jackie Kennedy memoir, for example, includes the actual audio of her interview sessions along with the text. There are many similar circumstances in which an ebook could include...

I have had an iPad from day one, but in the last 9 months have started to read book after book, Mist Series, Forgotton Realm series, Game of Throne series, have had the novel London in paperback on my bed stand for 6 months and finally started reading it. You have to have a light on, reading...

I had thought that you could not have an e reader that does text to speech but my son just got a Kindle and it has text to speech. Is there an app that will do that on the the iPad???

I have a 64gb iPad and would spend the extra dough for the 3G, just for the GPS. Did not think it was needed but after a month with Verizon iPhone it will be on my next iPad.

I am not able to update the content and app seems to have been removed from the App Store? I think this app was $4.99 so wonder if it has been removed if the cost could be credited back? Was a great app and would rather have it back. Anyone hear anything??
