Re: The Apple iPad Thread

An iTouch does everything I expected it to do and more. An iTouch has a purpose, the main thing is that it's portable, it fits in my pocket and if I need to use the web when I'm out and about then I use my phone with Joikuspot which works a treat. Would I carry an iPad out with me? No chance. If I carried a briefcase to work then maybe I would carry an iPad around with me.

I got an iTouch mainly as an updated ipod, and it works well, I can't see the point of an iPad for music. I use a Yamaha dock to play music through the amp at home and that also works well. I also use a Kindle for books which is better than an iPad for that function. Also it is easy to convert films to the iTouch and watch on the go (I've watched countless films on it) as well as reading books (Stanza). It has a function where portability is key. Would I watch a film on an iPad at home, why would I when I have a good sized TV and a good sized laptop / main PC monitor.

Games are quite ok on an iPad, but it doesn't warrant the price tag. Don't get me wrong, the iTouch is brilliant and the iPad is just a larger version so it's also brilliant, but because of the size to me it's also pointless.

I can't say I'd never get one at some point, but I won't even consider it yet as it's just way to early, and the price just doesn't warrant it.
