is the right answer.
If you buy something other than an ipad, it will cost you twice as much in the end.0 -

Yes there is but if her indoors wants an iPad is it worth upsetting her?:beer:0 -
If she wants an IPad then she wants an IPad.
However, I personally would prefer an Android 3 tablet, like the Xoom (first preference) or the Asus Eepad Transformer, or the Acer Iconia. Later this year the Samsung Galaxy is going to come out in a larger version, thinner than the IPad too, but I believe Vodafone have got the monopoly on this in this country.
Really depends what she wants, has she even considered the amount of Android apps out there, a lot of which are free?
I'm saving my monkey for another 3 months, then I'm buying a tablet to take to Canada as a multitasker including GPS (or sat nav?) internet on the road (booking hotels etc) and anything else we throw at it.What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

The Asus Transformer with keyboard dock gives you the option of using it as a tablet or netbook - best of both worlds.There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
It's for the many and not the few. Be sure it's out there looking for you.
In every town, in every state. In every house and every gate.
Wth every precious smile you make. And every act of kindness.
