    Default iPad 2

    Firstly let's make this clear. Fuck off with your overpriced, pretty, gadget, anti apple bullshit, I'm looking for advice not a fucking lecture from some Microsoft loving geek.

    Right, so the iPad 2. Was going to get the iPad 1 as I can't see the huge difference apart from the cameras. But most retailers have lowered the price to £399 (16gb wi-fi) and with Tesco and Quidco I can get 30 quid cashback plus 800 clubcard points. That makes it more attractive.

    Has anybody seen a better deal elsewhere? Will have to wait obviously as everywhere sol out currently.

    To sum it up briefly maye:

    If you have never used an iPad 2 then an iPad 1 is absolutely fine!

    The iPad 2 had dual core cpu, better graphics processor, double the ram and is lighter/thinner.

    If none of that make any difference, go for the 1st gen it is still better than all other tabs.

    The iPad 2 is about 4 times quicker than the iPad with a much better screen.

    I got the 64gb 3G version - I love it, although I couldn't really find a justification for buying it, I'm pleased I did.
