The Official I got my iPad 2 Thread!

[GoPackGo]

Okay, so I'm late to the iPad party

Got my iPad 2 a couple of weeks ago to use a the 'gig'- it's a 16g wf-fi black! Am wondering why I lugged around those charts for so long

Not as late as me! I'm getting mine next week.

Finally got the iPad 2-Black-64GB-WiFi+3G ! I've had my iPhone 4 for 8 months. I'm looking at the MacBook Pro now too. I need a 2nd job

Yay! I can post in here!

I got mine this afternoon, around 1pm. 16GB black WiFi. I spent hours on it, streaming videos from various apps, using Echofon, Facebook, etc. The battery life is amazing!!

I'm an Android user (my phone is Android) so it had a tiny learning curve but I mainly love iOS more than Android.

I bought a Smart Cover also (green!), and I guess I didn't realize that it bypassed the lock screen when you had it on. For some reason a part of me isn't happy about that, but do I really want to lock and unlock it constantly? Not really. I'll only put my passcode on it when I'm going to take it somewhere, in the SLIGHT CHANCE I ever take my eyes off of it, lol.

Long story short, I'm in love! I'm giving it a rest right now, and am going to convert a movie from .avi to watch tomorrow (cuz I hear the converting process takes *forever*).

Had it for a month now and it is never out of my sight for long. Use? Scrabble and Backgammon as I love to play but my hubby does not. Facebook and emial, far better than on my phone. Books!!! Info at my fingertips and learning Spanish as of today. Thank you lord for the iPad!

Hi, newbie both here and to the iPad. Got a 32GB WiFi only black iPad2 about two weeks ago. Also got an orange smart cover and a RooCase (also in orange) to take care of it. Screen is protected with a Zagg Shield.

I love it and it has almost completely replaced my personal laptop.

Got my Ipad 2 16 GB wifi which will replace my Acer Iconia A500 tablet!!

Bought my 64 WiFi 3 days ago and will be probably returning it for a 32 WiFi 3G. I've been reading the threads on the pros and cons and have decided that I don't want to wait till after the 14 day return window and regret not getting. By the way, I love this wonderful new member of my tech family.

The future is here--iPad 2

I picked up my black 16gig WI-FI only iPad2 from Wal-Mart last week and have been more than happy. It and my MacBook Pro are used daily. My 'pad is used primarily for field stuff and sure beats hauling my MacBook around.

Current projects have been to find a word processor I like -- Pages. I have a lot of books downloaded into my library, and a great collection of Bible resources. Amazing to have all of this in a device so light and about the size of a magazine.

I was thinking how technology has evolved since the early 90s. My first notebook computer was a MacBook 165c. If I could only show to my 1994 self what he have now!

Went to the Apple Store today to trade in my WiFi 64. The rep tried to talk me out of it. I pretended to walk out and grabbed another employee for better help. Proud to say that I now have the black 32 WiFi 3G Ipad2. Was able to load my back up from the "old" model. I may not activate the 3G any time soon, but I'm happy I have the choice. My prior tablet was a Nook Color. No comparison. The Nook app works almost as well on this and I have the landscape reading option. Much easier!

Glad it worked out. What was the first salesperson's argument?

Why did you downgrade from 64 to 32?
