No, the iPad is not at all like a laptop. Basically, it is like a big iPod touch. You can still write documents on it though. Read more

Who gave you all these wrong information? You can connect any camera,USB keyboard,headset and Memory card or USB hub to iPad through Camera Connection Kit that has two dongles, one for camera and the other one is for SD card. You can import photos that includes Raw photos and video. I don't know about BB but I connect my iPhone and camera quite often. Few people will say you need to buy Camera kit. But it's available for only $29 what's the big deal in it? Although you didn't ask but I am just giving you information that HULU,NETFLIX AND all other popular website with video content work flawlessly on iPad so don't believe people who say it cant play online video since it doesn't support Flash. Flash is past all the websites have recoded their content into HTML 5 which is supported by iPad. Read more

DANNY never got an iPad he is just a frustrated guy.He said he paid 15% restocking fees but restocking fees for iPad return is 10%. Now coming to the question: Yes it has built in speakers which is pretty decent. It also has headphone jack. I got a headphone splitter so two people can put earphones on. Headphone jack is regular and any headphone/earbud will work so no worries and yes it's very thin and I love my iPad to death. you can watch almost every TV show online for free. And watch movies free online or you can also stream movie from Netflix. It iPad version of MS Office which is amazing.

There are thousands upon thousands of books to choose from on apple's iBooks store, but you also have the option of downloading amazon's kindle and a couple of other book apps. The only problem I have with it is the price. You can't exactly use a coupon. There are some free books to choose from, like classics and stuff that no one really reads a lot unless it is for class, and you can also download a free sample of a book before purchasing it. I'm kinda on the fense about how I feel about apple's iBooks. I really prefer it to others, but the price is what gets me, but if you are an avid reader like me, you can't really go wrong. And almost all publishing companies have books available on iBooks, but as for the exact number... I really don't know it isn't listed on iBooks. But a rough estimate is around 12-14 thousand Read more

I don't think it will save money it will actually encourage people to shed another 600 bucks for something that they never had needed. But time is real factor for the success of iPad or you may say iPad is the first tablet or Netbook like device which is successful. Many professionals are using iPad for their work. News,that a lawyer took out iPad for some reference, was floting around last month. 1 in every 4 doctors are either using or will be buying shortly http://obamapacman.com/2010/02/epocrates-reports-1-in-4-doctors-likely-to-buy-apple-ipad-tablet-within-the-year/ It does save time to the extent that I prefer to do everything on iPad. My job require me to create word document ,presentation then upload to various WebDAV server like DropBox,Box.net. I used to open one tab for each WebDAV server and then find the document by name after that upload one by one. In the mean time I also had to minimize and maximize the document many time. On iPad ,it's piece of cake and even 4 years old kid can upload several documents in few seconds. Everything is set up, select all the files directly and hit upload button , you are done. And creating documents is super easy. Since I got the iPad I have not used my MacBook Pro and Toshiba Satellite. I however have to use my Desktop iMac sometimes. Recently I was watching MTV Movie Awards Live on iPad, my co worker tried to watch the same on PC , he was bombarded by Flash based ad banners and pop ups. He was not even annoyed with it because thats the way we all have using our devices. But my iPad was running as if I am playing an original DVD. I love the fact that iPad doesn't support buggy flash. We then compared Netflix video quality on PC and iPad and found video quality on iPad was significantly better. In a month I normally make 50 presentation out of which as many as 45 can easily be created on iPad and I do create on iPad. Only 5 are over complicated so I do on iMac or my office computer. But the ones that I make on iPad look simply stunning and it takes way lesser time than any body would take to create the same presentation on PC. iPad's battery is magical. I use iPad to extreme but still it lasts over 15 hours.By the time PC completes booting process I finish many task on iPad. It definitely saves time for me. I have Xbox 360 and Wii but I hardly get time to play.Now I spare time to play on iPad. It's great fun. Overall I am obsessed with iPad Read more
