Unfortunately so is a Laptop, a desktop and even a good calculator.. Nothing good comes cheap..



It may not be the best solution for taking notes in class (especially if you are not a profiecient typer, but I beg to differ on editing documents..



This makes absolutely zero sense and reeks of utter bullshit.. What isnt distracting?! Your blackberry is distracting, the Nigerin movies you watch is distracting every darn thing in this life has the potential to be distracting... DISCIPLINE is the key word here..



More Bullshit.. What in this world isnt distrcutable?! Your car, your wristwatch, your mobile phones, your sunglasses, even your paper noe book (try letting it slip and fall into a pool of water).. The keyword here again is CAREFULNESS...



This is a poor mans mantra.. Everything you own in this freaking world is desirable to another person.. So why should that stop me from enjoying life.. Just because your house looks big and would attract thieves, would you live in a mud house?! Nwokem wise up..



I dont even know how to answer this because it simply means you are ignorant of the device called an IPAD.. Rather than seclude sir, it brings you closer to the world.. E.g, Facebook, Twitter and almighty Skype and facetime.. Be informed..



You just revealed your ultimate problem.. BROKE-ASSNESS.. So just because you cant resell e-books, makes it worthless... I cant educate you on this one.. You seem to have crossed the treshold of redemption..



Again this reeks of abject bad belle and futher explains your problem.. Inferiority complex.. You just called an Ipad a status symbol.. A device that has been embraced widely in the business and educational world.. Nwokem, you need Jesus..



No sir.. Just like the Laptops and desktops.. you do not need to dash out and buy the latest model of a device.. The honest truth is that with the exception of upgrades to firmwares, Operating systems and a few technical designs, the funtionality of all Ipads have not changed till date.. the Ipad 1 does the exact same thing the Ipad 3 does... My advice is stick to the one you've got.. The pentium computers can still do the same basic work the core 2 duo does.. Just that it the core 2 is faster..



Not if you know how to use the Ipad properly you dont.. Again sir, you need to keep up..

Waltro: Oh well, different strokes for differnt folks. Its all about the utility you derive from the device, I personally love gadgets and technology and I find them useful for work, communication and entertainment. The poster's reasons and argument are very basic/elementary, pple buy this device because they derive benefits from them (be it vain, emotional or functional). I use an iPhone 4S, its more expensive than an iPad but it doesn't make me foolish because because I've spent all that money on a phone. Its simply what I like, afterall there are pple who think devices are silly but these same people will spend more than the cost of this device (that I can use for more than a year) in one night at a club or beer parlour or spray that amount of money at a ceremony/occasion....in the end it all boils down to utility.

ebamma: u are right,ipad, galaxy tab and other tablets are just meant for effizy,a laptop is a better option

kalufelix: so u actually took out tym to counter d op wit dis rubbiish? U re soo soo wrong

Okija_juju:

mikron: #10 You will also need a laptop whether you like it or not. i like this part

Another Okija:

I want to believe that the reason is because the apps suited for the Ipad are rather small in size... Its hard to find a 500mb app.. so it would take you forever to fill an Ipad with 64gig worth of apps or even 64 gig worth of songs purchased from Itunes...

Highbros:
So the 64gb is an application memory? By their post you shall know them.

Okija_juju:

The truth is that we in Nigeria are very Limited by the poor state of the Internet we have..

When I was in the Apple store, I saw the sales guys use Ipads and Ipods to its fullest potentials and let me say that apart from syncing you photos and music.. The Ipad is a device that can be used independent of a computer... Even to print!!

Highbros:
Not just by saying "use to its fullest", what exactly did they do with it?even a nokia phone can print.

oyb:

i think an sd card slot would bust apples profit margins

on some apple wishlist thread, it was pointed out that with an sd card slot, peeps would just buy 16gb ipads

as to filling an ipad with 64 gig worth of apps

one thing i'd want to do with an ipad is store video tutorials so i can watch them on the go, or before i go to sleep etal ( typical tutorial can come to 3gb of videos)

you'd be suprised at just how fast that 64gb will fill up, especially with hd videos

zenus:

I also have have 2 HD movie of 4.2GIG each still on my iPad
