I've got the first IPad and it's fantastic. Quick, portable and easy to use, especially for this. Wouldn't upgrade as not enough new on it. Saved me a fortune in not buying the papers also.

As far as I kno the IPad2 is a bit smaller and has camera. Also the girl in th Apple Store in Churchill Square sai to wait for the next generation!!

I'm typing this on it now. It's utterly amazing. Seriously - I LOVE this thing. Buy it.

Yeah, great bit of kit for casual browsing... (and there's an app for practically anything if you want more than that!)

BTW, does anyone know if Seagulls Player will be iOS compatible any time soon? That's pretty much the only reason me not subscribing right now....

Love my iPad. I'm posting on it now. I use it more than my laptop and desktop put together.

iPad2 - brilliant! Makes the iPhone and even the MacBook pro the poor relations. I know there are shed loads of things that you can do on the MacBook that you can't do on the iPad but it doesn't matter, the iPad remains the weapon of choice.

If you want a tablet (and why not ?) the Ipad 2 is not only better than the original both are still way ahead of the Android and Windows tablets. What is even more ironic is that the Ipad 2 is cheaper than quite a lot of it's rivals. I should be getting one soon and I would recommend this device without hesitation.

I've got two MacBooks, an iMac, an iPod Touch and a tablet PC. I'm still not quite sure what the iPad does that is so amazing. I bought one for the kids and it looks like a big iPod Touch, which is great for playing Angry Birds in HD, but beyond that I am still to be convinced.

I decided to go for a non 3G Ipad 2 and a 3 myfi dongle. That way there is no recurring costs, just on a need to use basis.

Snap, just make sure you have a pass key on the MiFi, don't want people helping themselves to your downloads do you ?
