We have a whole house full of iPads and iPad2's... everybody loves them. Gwen uses her's for reading and never puts it down... mine sits here and I play solitaire on it... and usually take it on trips over the laptop... They're fast - reliable and do everything well EXCEPT -- typing... they are hard to type on.
Now - the best part of the iPhone 4 S ---- SIRI! Pick up the phone - ask it "how much is 4point2 percent of 650,000? Stupid thing gives you the answer!
Just ask it - how far is it from my current position to Ned Jacksons - it pulls up google maps and gives you the info.
I swore at mine the other day -- it responded "now now"
