What iPad would you get?
I was going for wifi + 3G but being in London wifi hotspots are plentiful. So 3G not needed plus I can use "mywi" to use the 3G connection of my iphone anyway.

    If you have an iphone already. With the advent of 4.3, I'd stick to a wifi only tablet and save the £££.

    As for ipad1 or ipad 2? Depends on budget. If you have the cash then obviously 2 is best. If money is tight then get the 1.

    Personally I think you want a minimum of 32gb. Its hard to compare them as the 2 isnt out yet but with the price discount, even with inferior specs there are very few tablets offering the same value for money abnd buld quality of the ipad 1 with £100 knocked off. I went for the 64 gb as a refurb and got it yesterday. Its great so far. I have a 16gb Iphone and its struggling now for space with all my apps and music. Thats with me being careful! What are your needs likely to be?

    Not really helpful guys. The OP is asking for opinions to choose from the stated options. If you dont like apple products fine - save your finger energy and laugh to yourself quietly and allow the thread to stay on topic./

    There does seem to be an inordinate amount of adverts on the TV for this apple stuff.
    Must work I suppose.

    64gb, wifi only, iPad 1, or ipad 2 if you have the extra £100. Wifi is everywhere, you don't need 3G, and you don't want to be constantly worrying about storage and having to delete things to make more room so go for 64gb.
