    I think Mesomophican is one of those people that thinks if they don't have the latest product theres is obsolete. We can say the iPad 3 will be more powerful and have more features than the iPad 2. That's product evolution so I don't understand his point as their seem to be millions loving their current iPads.



    Surprisingly, my mother only reads books from her iPad now. I really didn't expect her to adopt to an electronic reader after so many decades of reading bound books.

    Surprised how well the apple case works with the iPad.

    I also used the zipper pouch that came with my Eeepc netbook for added protection as well as the micro cloth which is perfect for cleaning the screen.

    Sol, you must tell us more of this Safari bug that interferes with what usage pattern. I, for one, dumped Safari as soon as Atomic Web Browser came out. I, then, dumped that for Perfect Browser. There are many good options for iPad browsers. Do tell.

    Yes he is in that vicious cycle. I've never used the cam in the netbook and Studio XPS that I have.

    Only used 7g of the 64g of memory so far and no problems at all with memory on the iPad so at first I wasn't sure what he was talking about.



    I also think Mesomorphican is the one feeling the pain or else he would not have wrote that.

    Hope he feels better now.



    Saying that he bought a slightly used 3G iPad half price would make more sense.
