Web browsing is FAS*T. Cool apps and “Pages”! Why is Apple the only company that does it with style? If it were up to Microsoft, the mPad would be five pounds, and you’d see the “C:>”.

But, then there is, in my opinion, the absolute worst AT&T network. Camels could carry data faster, and more reliably. I have the iPhone, original, and will not upgrade until they get Verizon. And, I hoping some other carrier makes sim cards for the iPad so I don’t have to put up with their truly ridiculous, not even beta-worthy, network.

AT&T: Steve Jobs, what were you thinking!!!?

Really appreciate the breakdown on the app and movie sizes! While I dont currently have a MacBook, since mine went kaput about a year ago, I do have my IMac and dont plan on having a highly demanding need to be connected to the app store and the internet 24/7. Now-a-days, you cant swing a dead cat without hitting a wifi hotspot, so I will be getting the 32g wifi model. I also have a feeling that it will probably have automatic connectivity while in sleep like the macbook does. So basically as you take it with you, and hit hotspots you can set it to sync your email. I know I am going to get a reply with “but that means you trust all hotspots and give potential access to your email.” Well that isnt completely true. While the host would be able to see content, they wouldnt be able to get access because of encryption. Plus, I’m not exactly emailing launch codes to the president or anything and dont really care if they read my email.

It will be great to hand to clients while showing homes. Then when the new one comes out I’ll just give this to my wife (she loves getting my hand-me-down Apple gear).

Since it’s got bluetooth, I figure I could tether it to my iphone and use the 3g connection through the phone (the way I do with my macbook now).
