Apple is not for everyone.  You might like Ice cream Sandwitch more.  Good luck!

Actually use what long d also will bored. Andriod the same. But 1 thing that I think Andriod can't fight with Apple is the stability and smoothiness. Apple still have the best user experience compare with others... ^.^

At least put the clear type protector which would not affect the screen clarity.

There you go. Not everything can be quantify with numbers. Some will make you think that you gotta have quad core processor, 2GB memory, 8MP camera and 2MP front camera.

In the end there is something that you just can't quantify from the IOS and it is the overall smoothness and feel.

Ipad is not a 1stop solution for everything. You still need a notebook/desktop to do those normal office programs... gaming, and etc

iPad gets my job done in few occasion ,
1. Long hours in cafe / coffee shop, which in here I do not have to bring my charger , one shot go I can last 8 hours no problem.
2. On the bed reading and browsing Internet when the sleeping fails with the room light off. Reading has become such a pleasure.
3. Mobility on the go , all simple and basic Internet stuff can be done conveniently without using laptop , even walking I check mail , or finding information thru google.
4. Some casual gaming when I need it during bombing time , or waiting spouse when she is in front of the make up desk.
To me it's definitely worth to get an Ipad and reason I choose iPad rather than android tablet is because much more quality apps , standardized hardware so DEV can max out the iPad potential when developing app , which result in great app. Android will never be able to make this anyway. From 800 mhz processor to 1.4 ghz quad core, DEV have to make sure the app are balanced to all the device spec. Which resulted a undertuned app.
Currently only tablet serve me well is iPad , but hope other platform can catch up. I am sold when there is another tablet with 20 hours battery life + wide variety of quality app , no matter it's android iOS or window. LOL
* this new iPad retina screen is my main concern to upgrade from iPad 2. Really make a big difference especially reading and browsing web. Worth very cent IMO.

You got it right on all the point. However I don't see a need for a 20hrs battery life. 10hrs is a long time and for even the most hardcore would be crazy to be staring on the screen for 10hrs a day. For me its more than enough to get thru a day which I just need to recharge at night before i go to bed. I would rather settle for 10 hrs and lighter tablet.

Thank you all !

I heard from others, for e-book reading like pdf file, the best is to take e-reader like kindle touch, the reason being is bcoz of the color screen like ipad and others which could caused eye strain easily due to it and not fit for long hours reading, not sure if you guys feel the same ?

Noo, i'm not like that smile.gif if people asked, i would tell them that it's the 3rd gen ipad, that's it smile.gif
