    Very nice pressie,
    actually just looking at them myself, trying to justify the outlay though.
    Got a 17inch laptop and got an acer aspire one for christmas but really really want an ipad.
    Going to florida in 5 weeks so keep telling myself I really really :rotfl: need one if only for the flight :D to read on, play solitaire etc
    Just tell me I should get one and be done with it :)



    I have the iPad 2, posting from it right now:D I love it, my mum got one after seeing mine!

  • i'm pretty sure if it's wi-fi you don't need to pay anything, as you just connect to your home broadband etc.

    if you want 3g internet however, this means you can connect to the net through the phone signals, I think you need a contract for it.

    So I would only need a contract if I were to use it outside of my home wifi connection?
    I thought that you had to buy a card or sim or something to enable it to be used, like I said I aint got a clue :D
    All replies are very welcome! :rotfl:

    You can connect it to any wi-fi, at your friends houses, macdonalds etc.... or if you have bt you can connect to their hotspots.

    I'm sure you just need a sim or contract to use the 3g on it :)
