good move, it would make an almost useless product somewhat useful.


Is the ipad really useless? I really want one, it is just so cool looking, but I cannot think of any reason to have it unless I was on some sort of train ride or something.


depends i suppose on what you want.  i want something to take the place of my dying laptop so i'm looking for something that can: browse (the entire) internet, play my music collection, store my photos, store and open my files (excel and whatnot), ect.   the mere fact that it doesn't have a USB drive but rather the propriety apple connection (meaning it's really hard to get files on/off without a laptop the very thing i'd like to replace) defeats the entire point.  the fact it doesn't browse a good portion of the web (including this site) makes is practically useless to me.

i really want to want a tablet, i just don't want a stupid one.


Apart from quoting posts I have no issue with this site on my ipad2.

did things get better?  i used an ipad at the apple store and had a lot of things break for me at the time.  ~4 months ago was the last time i tried.


Like I say, seems to work ok for me.  The inability to quote from there and from my iphone is a bit of a pain though.


That is very strange about the ipad. I have a Samsung from a small crappy American Wireless provider named Cricket and I am able to do whatever on this site. I think Youtube is the only site that I have problems on and that is usually minimal.

I am quoting you both on my ipad2 while sitting here in an airport.  I don't have a problem cruising the net on almost any website.  I had some problems on a few websites 5-6 months ago.  Based on what you plan to use it for, it seems to match almost perfect.
