I’ve had the iPad for a week now and I really can’t fault it. Battery life is great, it’s snappy, apps just work and the screen is amazing. Even typing on the keyboard isn’t as troublesome as I thought it might be.
Reading email and surfing the web is amazing on the device. It’s perfect for quickly checking email or sitting for long sessions of email sorting. I actually sorted out my gmail account on it pretty fast. The web is snappy and vie had no problems at all with the fact that it doesn’t do flash. I guess none of the sites I visit frequently use flash
The only thing I could fault about it is that the books and apple apps aren’t available in Australia yet, so I gotta wait for those.
