Ipad!!! Has anyone gotten the new mac ipad yet? I'm about to get one and would love to know what you think if you already have one! I have an iPhone and MacBook pro and know that the ipad is like a giant iPhone (with a few new features) but think it will be easier to read books and be on YT and facebook than using the iPhone for those things! Excited about it but would love to hear from anyone who has one now! Thanks!:D |
My brother & sister-n-law both bought one and I was looking at it on Easter. Reading books on it looks great! I also liked how light it was, so it's easy to take around. Also would be great for watching movies in the car, plane, etc.. It would definitely be easier on the eyes vs the iPhone! They plan on buying them for some of their employees for word processing, scheduling, etc.. It's more convenient then a laptop! My other brother is waiting for the 3G version that comes out later this month. Overall, I was impressed and it has an attractive price! |
I'm curious to hear as well.... |
I want one! I am going to wait a couple of months and then get one. |
I'm going to get one too, they are not yet for sale here in Canada but rumour is they are going to be near the end of this month. Yay!! I was reading a mac forum and some have gotten theirs iPads and there is dead pixels on the screens, so take a good look to make sure your screen does not have any. One guy said he went through 3 before the 4th one had no dead pixels. Enjoy! |

Well, it's more convenient than a laptop depending on what you need to do with it. As far as I understand, it doesn't have a full operating system... the internet will work exactly as it does on the iphone and ipod touch.. it doesn't support flash so some websites wouldn't work as they should. Personally, since I don't travel much or read books much, I wouldn't use it very often. On a different note, has anyone seen this video? What the...? At first, I just thought he didn't like Apple products and was trying to make a point, but no.... they love Apple, they just thought it would be fun! HUH??? :confused::confused: |

:confused: :confused: Is right! What was their point? They better be glad they aren't my sons, because if they were and I saw this video I'd slap some sense into them! :mad: What in the world are people raising these days? I don't care if it was their money spent and yes we have freedom of speech and such here in America, but some forms of expression are stupid and worthless. |
On a lighter note...I want an IPad but I'll wait for the next generation when it comes with improvements ;) |

Maybe it's for their 15 minutes of fame, lame. :thumbdown |
My husband and oldest son have them. It is great for them. My husband is a CPA and he has to carry a computer all the time and this is lighter and faster than his air. My son is in medical school and it has a lot of apps for his use. They love them. I know #2 son wants one for law school, but #3 son doesn't want one for college just uses his macbook. I guess its just personal preference. |
It is not getting good reviews, everyone is saying it is slow. I say wait a few months, they will improve them. |
I was one of the first people to have an iPhone and I'm on the next gen iPhone and not a ton is different other than the addition of the video cam! I also have a MacBook pro and tend to lean towards my iPhone to get on YT or any other really quick jaunt on the Internet instead of dragging out the laptop (how sad is that when a laptop seems to hard to break out! LOL. Lame I know!) but the problem with the iPhone is that it's small so I'm always pinching to enlarge! Hoping the ipad will be the perfect size! I'm excited about my ipad...hoping to have it as an early mother's day present for a trip we are taking next weekend! I'm a super girlie girl who loves my yorkies, couture fashion, make-up, jewelry and anything techie (so not like a girlie girl I know)...mainly mac stuff!! LOVE MAC!! Thanks for the opinions!! :-) |

Yeah, I found it on the front page of CNN.com, so they got the attention they were looking for. |

So can I synch everything on my mac onto the ipad and it would be like I'm on my mac but on the ipad? Also can you print from it? |
