Ha Langtang I know the feeling. Having +500 Gb on Music even my 64Gb Ipad 2 is too small. I do however feel that the more space you have the more "useless" stuff you keep. Is like when we moved from Europe to Thailand. I told my wife:" everything that does not fit in the 40" container stays behind!" Believe me, that helped.

Aha! A music fan. Can I pick your brains? I have ripped all my CDs to iTunes, but I also collect live concert recordings in flac (compressed, lossless) format. Do you know if I can play flac files on the iPad? I hope you are enjoying living in Thailand. I loved my 3 months there years ago, such friendly people.

No, you will have to convert them to mp3, aac, wav, aiff, or apple lossless. Preferably you can convert them to mp3. Check out www.dbpoweramp.com for a free and easy to use converter.
I found this on another forum. Hope this helps you. I only have 70 GB of music and I thought that was large.

Cool, thanks for the heads-up. Apple lossless sounds the thing for me. I have external hard drives totalling nearly 8TB of "live" music. Live music is better, bumper stickers should be issued ( Neil Young quote)

Can someone also answer me as to why 64 is the biggest drive? I have an iPad classic that has 160GB capacity. Surely going down in capacity is a backwards step, not something Apple is known for. I don't think that physical size would have been the issue? Maybe it was.

Sorry, don't know the answer to that one but you never know the iPad 3 could have more memory but I will leave that question to someone else more knowledgeable. Don't forget they might be sleeping so give them time to answer you.

Thailand is great. Been here one year now and at least another two to go. With music i make good deals with friends and such. They borrow me their cd collection and i rip it. In return i give them a HD with mine and their collections, complete with library.

The nice about it is the variety of music you have. I heard singers and sorts of music i never knew about.

Interesting question about the disk size. Since the Ipad has a lot of possibilities i guess that for this gadget size does matters......

I want to know, which model you own.

IPad 1, 64, 3G, black. iPad 2, 64, 3G AT&T black. The white looks too funky for me.

One of the real drawbacks to this device is the inflexibility of memory configurations. I do regret not popping for the 64GB device, but even then my work and travel would require the deletion and reinstallation of content for various presentations. I still need to travel with either a netbook or laptop with iTunes aboard to reconfig the iPad content - mostly video, audio, graphics, and writing/design apps.

Why don't you try using Dropbox or any other on line storage service like Apple's MobileMe. This will allow you to store content online, giving you access to whatever you need when you need it. There are apps like file browser, goodreader, that facilitate access to your content. I have a 32Gb iPad1 and keep quite a few documents, films and music, mail account etc and probably used about 16Gb
