    No, 64 gig Ipad should be fine actually. The only thing that bothers me is not having flash on Safari, which is a major nerf to the web experience. And you can bet that thing is going to get hack to the bone, so flash will be there at some point, trust me

    Other than porn, free games and advertisements, why is flash so important to the 'web experience?' One of my laptops can't even play flash and I don't miss it at all.

    hmm let me think... about every single companie that sell videos use Flash.

    TV networks, Hulu, netflix, ... they dont support flash so you are force to buy from them, its not a technical thing, its a business thing. The Ipad could support flash, they just DONT want you using it.

    No you're not.

    If you don't buy from them they won't sell anything. Since sellers need buyers more than buyers need sellers the sellers will change.

    Yeah..I heard about HTML5. Youtube will probably release it soon. Then more websites will follow it. So that companies like Apple won't have to go to Adobe for flash anymore and people can stop installing plugins..let's hope it will be out soon on the web!

    The iPad has a USB. It connects with the 10w USB connector and there are many attachments for the USB.



    What people are really missing here and I am just "Spit Balling" is that the iPad is designed to us WiFI and 3G as its communication platform for transferring data. So if you want that movie on your computer to be on you iPad it is done wireless. If you have an iPad and you on on an air plane and you left you MacBook at home with the awake for network processes feature on, you can communicate to you MacBook through your iPad and upload anything you really want including any movies or tv shows you have saved on said MacBook.

    It is a negative point anyway...So to get things done wirelessly you should by a Macbook (again from Apple)?? Wi-Fi and 3g(price of iPad with 3g is much higher) doesn't compromise with a USB port anyway (I don't know whether Apple is selling USB ports, but I've read they are selling such peripherals for $30 each). We can't compromise what an iPad doesn't have unless it have them when releasing to public or on future versions.

    Obvious troll is obvious.



    Most of us already got a Mac. It is nothing negative.



    Go get a Windows tablet if that what you want. Why do most people forget they can make a choice and choose to buy what suits them best?



    Plus there is a USB port and SD reader



    iPad Camera Connection Kit

    The Camera Connection Kit gives you two ways to import photos and videos from a digital camera. The Camera Connector lets you import your photos and videos to iPad using the camera’s USB cable. Or you can use the SD Card Reader to import photos and videos directly from the camera’s SD card.

    I love the versatility of the iPad, regardless of the loss of Flash and Multi-Tasking. Jobbs did not present the iPad correctly by not allowing some questions in the end of his show.
