i think the ipad is waste of the money .... yes it has some special games that the app store doesn't have for the Itouch and Iphone but seriously. The ipad doesn't even have any usb ports and its apple's itouch laptop!!!! it's hard to look at the screen when your in light! It is to big for a phone and 2 retared for a laptop. If i was actually going to buy a laptop i would just spend that extra 800$ and buy my self a new vaio laptop (vaio best laptop in the world !!!!! i got one :) )
