Mine arrived about an hour ago.
I'm new to the iPad experience. So far I'm a little underwhelmed.
Maybe time will improve.
The camera is awful. This is my first pic and I was hardly able to see the pic on the screen outside.

iPad 3 - First picture
They have the technology to release good cameras but they just don't bother so it can be a feature of the new one which pisses me off

Sharper or better contrast?
Much sharper.

You could tell the iPad2 was an 'electronic display' but the screen on the new one was so sharp and clear to almost look like a magazine cover

How os iBooks? Would a screen grab show it or not? Actually, unless you had a monitor at that resolution, you couldn't see it anyway! Never mind.

Think I am going to buy, want, want, don't waste money, want, don't waste money (my head thinking out loud). I am trying to save as much as I can but things like this keep appearing

Not that mad a rush in non Apple stores today. Wondered into my local PCWorld this morning around 11am and they still had reasonable stock levels.

It was rude not to wink

Still waiting for TNT to deliver mine, at this rate I'm heading off to PC World where there's stock and return the one from Apple.
I had to go and get mine in the end as although it said it was out for delivery, it wasn't guy said they couldnt cope and there was no chance they could deliver them all today unless they had about 50 more vans!

"How os iBooks?" ....not sure what you mean by that!

I was comparing the two displays side by side showing the same 'desktop' or whatever it is called and the new one was much much sharper.

See, if you had an iPad that would have autocorrected.



Probably to something unintelligible!

Ah, sorry! I thought it was a reference operating system or something. I don't own an iPad but was looking at it since my wife has been dropping major hints about one for her birthday.

I'm really not enjoying my first few hours with it.

Question to those who know -

I have a digicard with 1,000 pix on it, I'd like to import 500 of them into the ipad - do I really have to click 500 thumbnails individually ?

Missed the delivery unfortunately frown

Does anyone know if UK MAIL allow collections on Saturday mornings? They don't answer the telephone.
