Why should I NOT buy an iPad?

I can't come up with a good reason bsides cost.

That has never stopped me before.

The device was designed for me.

wait for a while until they figure out it's glitches and fix them..
then do what the hell you want

It is just a big version of the iPhone?

Kinda like the Nintendo DSi XL.

You've got enough stuff.

To get one with wifi and 3G capabilities you will have to fork out over $1000. Not fucking worth it when you have an iPhone and a computer.
The iPad is in between, and is kinda pointless in my opinion.

I used one in QLD and the screen resolution is nice, but other than that it's waste. Almost like buying a PSP again.

Its basically a giant iphone without the call functions. If you already have a computer and/or laptop than I dont see the point in getting one. If you really want one than take sparton's advice and wait a while until they iron out the kinks (and cink cobras!!haha).

If u get 1 just get the wifi 1 and use ur phone and download the mywi app from rock... Then it creates a wifi network from ur iPhone then u use ur 3g data that u already pay 4

The data packages offered for iPads are incredible.

It looks perfect for me.
I was going to buy a new laptop as I fried mine on the weekend (really fucken annoying) but then I thought about what I actually use my pc for.

Internet browsing, YouTube, facebook....

Why would I get a more expensive laptop when I can get something that I will really enjoy?
My iPhone is the best thing I ever purchased.

Only reason I haven't bought one is because I have not seen one in action in person. I have watched at least 50 video reviews now, I am making it worse for myself.

The battery life is amazing, 11 hours with solid use. The best laptops (for battery life (not talking about MacBooks, I know they are awesome)) only give you 2-3 hours with SOLID use.

If I hadn't gotten so used to laptop net surfing then I wouldn't want one so bad.

I really need a good reason not to buy one, at this stage if anyone bar apple stores sold them I would already have one.

An Australian company has released an iPad screen coating that does away with the ridiculous high-gloss mirror finish on the iPad.

"i ped" from China. Cheap ripp off, but aperently does the same thing. Uses the Android operating system. Buy at your own risk.

Knowing Tom, he most likely already bought one. Once he has his sight on something, he will get it.
I'm much the same. I'm on eBay all the fucking time, buying useless things.
