Bookmark topic
Hi everyone,
yep, I know how to search for info on the net and I know the specifications are not available, pure conjecture..
but...get iPad 2 now
and enjoy using..... or wait for iPad 3? iPad 3 could be 6 months away.
I will research about new
Sony S Tablet vs
Sony P Tablet vs
Galaxy 10.1 Tablet vs
iPad 2 vs
iPad 3 
but it would be good to hear opinons from Esato members who use the iPad 2.
Oh! I think I would get the 64 gb WiFi version if I do get the iPad 2..
Thanks! Off for a nap, then back to search.

I have a white 32gb 3G iPad 2 on 3 and it 's excellent there isn't many places where I don't get a 3G signal. I use it for everything from twitter esato etc to compleating my time sheet for work. When I visit my Daughters and connect via wifi it's very good also to be honest I haven't had any problems with it at all.
I have some of the Same games on my iPad and iPhone 4 and they are so much better on the big screen....bit obvious I know but has to be said. The keyboard is good to type on and when I use a laptop now it feels weird because I use the iPad so much.
I can see the point of waiting for iPad 3 but 12 months after that comes out iPad 4 could be out..... So when do you stop waiting and buy one.

thanks for your opinion nicv27 !
I think about waiting because it would be only 3-4 months! Yes, use and enjoy now or wait..
Also if I wait, I can check out what else is released, new colour Kindle etc.
I will do some serious thinking over the weekend!

people like us don't wait, do we?
and besides, 3 or 4 months, there'll be something else you can wait for 3-4 months after that!
ipad 2 is an excellent bit of kit, and my use of it is probably 75% different to what I use my iphone for so there is very little overlap really.
The best part is that many apps are universal so you only pay once to get them on al your iOS devices

Hi masseur,
yes, I am tempted not to wait, ... and go into town tomorrow and get one!
wondering about the magnetic cover made by Apple or whether to search out a more substantial looking leather cover.
Any views on covers most welcomed!

I have the blue vinyl magnetic cover and its perfect. you can also get a leather smart cover from apple.
there are even 3rd party smart covers available now which are much cheaper and do exactly the same, however Apple have just updated their smart cover range so that, for example, the vinyl ones have the same colour on both sides of the cover. Previously they were all grey on the inside.

I will,
my only thought is to check out, for myself, the new Sony P Tablet,,,, but I don't think that would be so much different from the Galaxy 7" Tablet running 2.3.3 Kratos rom, except for it's clam shell form, making it pocketable.
And then, of course, I still have nowt to run my Apple Apps on!
Might have to wait till next Wednesday to go...
