Apple iPad (16GB, AT&T, 3G) price range: $602.91

- Released on: 04/03/2010
The good: In an act of aggressive tech convergence, Apple has consolidated your Netbook, e-reader, gaming device, photo frame, and iPod into an elegant, affordable supergadget. Features such as Bluetooth, 802.11n Wi-Fi, movie rentals, 10 hours of battery life, optional 3G wireless, and the most-celebrated App Store on the planet have us pretty worked up.
The bad: The iPad's large size is as much a hindrance as it is an advantage. As a jack-of-all-trades and a master of few, the iPad can't entirely mimic many of the specialized products it seeks to replace. The iPad's lack of front or rear cameras, Flash support, and integrated HD video output already have us pining for next year's model.
The bottom line: The Apple iPad is the first affordable tablet computer worth owning, but it won't (yet) replace your laptop.

CLASS OF ITS OWN! ALL CRITICS ARE NAIVE HERE'S WHY...
by Salem389 on May 4, 2010
Pros: Beautiful Display, Easy to type, AT&T has surprisingly blazing 3g speed, Interface, and most importantly APPS!!!!
Cons: Screen should be anti-glare, can't wirelessly sync music and videos with itunes. (This is just me being greedy)
Summary: All critics who have went on to bash the iPad are completely naive. No you can't connect an external HD, no there's no flash but what did you ...
Summary: All critics who have went on to bash the iPad are completely naive. No you can't connect an external HD, no there's no flash but what did you expect apple to do? Make a device that will essentially drive all macbooks to extinction?
The bottom line is this: Is the iPad a necessity? NO. Is is a luxury? Yes and a HUGE ONE!
You name me one other device that will last you 12 hours, allow you to surf the web, watch movies/tv shows, allow you to stream movies to your iPad, and most importantly give you access to the most amazing store of apps known to man........ Can't come up with anything can you? OF course not because this device is completely revolutionary and it most definitely delivers! For instance today i caught up on lost by streaming the latest episode from my ABC app (yes you can watch any ABC TV show on your iPad), then i played a game of scrabble while listening to my itunes music, after that i checked the weather on the Weather Channel App, after that i got some work done by editing a spreadsheet on Pages, then I read The Lost Symbol. Instead of bringing my Kindle, iPod, and a Netbook with me all i had to do was bring my iPad with me today....... This is a luxury like no other! If you can afford it DO NOT hesitate to buy!3 out of 3 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: I picked mine up shortly after the iOS 4.2.1 release. I have used it mainly as a second computer at home, but it has come in handy as a lighter alternative to taking my 15 inch laptop on the go. The battery has been more then impressive. At home the brightness is set to the lowest setting ,otherwise it seems a bit like a torch, and it can go a day or more without needing a charge. I pick it up to play a few games, check my email, log on to facebook, watch movies and videos, and sketch a bit, with long periods of standby. I will fall asleep with it next to me in bed. I pick it up and check facebook and the battery is still strong. The GPS is good more accurate then it will ever admit itself to being, it can pin point my location to less then 20 feet while inside my home. AT&T coverage is pretty lousy in my area, but they are expecting to improve that here soon, but when I am covered it is more then fast enough to check my email, Facebook, and instant messages to friends.
The downside of the device has to be the apps you can get for it. As of this review many of my most needed apps such as yahoo messenger, Facebook, and Skype have yet to release iPad optimized versions. They look perfect on the small screen of my iPod touch 4g but look atrocious blown up to fit my iPad, though that is of no fault of Apple, developers need more time and incentive to focus on the new device. -
Apple nails it. The first and ONLY legitimate tablet.
by VReggie on January 19, 2011
Pros: Superior build quality and feel. Useful functionality, ease of use.
Cons: Slightly larger than ideal for portability, but still a great product.
Summary: Without the 3G it's merely a toy, or an entertainment device (music, pictures and video). The 3G transforms this into a functional, powerful work tool given the right apps.

Pros: 3G(QUAD BAND,HSPDA). Screen Size that's basically a 15" Notebook. Dare I say..APP STORE, iWorks.
Cons: after updating too 4.2.1 there seems to be a Charging problem via USB Port, hopefully Apple will Fix this with 4.3.
Summary: Great Tool too use. I own a Laptop and Sometimes I may not want too take it with me to work, SO..why NOT..get something that's a Cross ...

Summary: Unquestionably the best computer I?ve ever bought. The iPad has made almost every aspect of my life easier from business, odd jobs, reading/music/TV, sporting and vacation. It has become the transparent window that brings great value to my life. I wondered when a computer would come along that would let me multitask with so much ease that I could completely focus on what I?m doing and not be distracted or delayed by the pc. This is it.

I already have a desktop, so this is a great add on PC.
by yottabyte21-208644521796496775 on October 5, 2010
Pros: I love the battery life, while I'm on campus I never have to worry about it. The 3G capability without having to sign a contract is a very smooth move on Apple and AT&T's part. The large touchscreen is awesome, great for up close web browsing.
Cons: The wait until iOS 4.2 is killing me, I want multitasking so bad, but I can make due for now. The lack of a front camera and retina display is noticeable every time that I switch to my iPad from my iPhone 4. Accelerometer makes gaming a blast.
Summary: I like that there are a multitude of apps available. I love the 3rd party support, there are more and more accessories coming out for the iPad every week it ...
Summary: I like that there are a multitude of apps available. I love the 3rd party support, there are more and more accessories coming out for the iPad every week it seems. Having wireless N as well as AT&T is great so that I can be connected pretty much everywhere I go. Reading eBooks on the nice color screen is very pleasant, much less lag when turning pages than Nook or Kindle. The compass built into the 3G iPad makes it easy to locate my device with MobileMe if needed or just to get clear and accurate Google Maps directions if you should take this on a roadtrip (makes for a great map).
Specifications
- Manufacturer: Apple
- Part number: MC349LL/A
- Description: A large, high-resolution LED-backlit IPS display. An incredibly responsive Multi-Touch screen. And an amazingly powerful Apple-designed chip. All in a design that's thin and light enough to take anywhere. iPad isn't just the best device of its kind. It's a whole new kind of device. The high-resolution, 9.7-inch LED-backlit IPS display on iPad is remarkably crisp and vivid. Which makes it perfect for web browsing, watching movies, or viewing photos. With iPad, there is no up or down. It's designed to show off your content in portrait or landscape orientation with every turn. And because it uses a display technology called IPS (in-plane switching), it has a wide, 178° viewing angle. So you can hold it almost any way you want and still get a brilliant picture, with excellent color and contrast. The Multi-Touch screen on iPad is based on the same revolutionary technology on iPhone. But the technology has been completely reengineered for the larger iPad surface, making it extremely precise and responsive. So whether you're zooming in on a map, flicking through your photos, or deleting an email, iPad responds with incredible accuracy. And it does just what you want it to. If you want to extend your network coverage further, choose iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G and sign up for access to 3G data service. iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G offers super fast data speeds over 3G cellular networks around the world. It's perfect when you're out and about with no access to a Wi-Fi network, because you can still get a fast connection for surfing the web, sending and receiving email, or getting directions. Since iPad seamlessly switches between 3G and even faster Wi-Fi, you always get the best connection available.
