IPAD question for Gayle....

I bet they are! Just wondering if the prices will really go down much after April when the newer model comes out, PLUS wondering how much MORE the new model will be.

I don't know but with the iPhones the older models go down quite a bit when the new models come out.

I'm at the Texas womens basketball game right now with my iPad. I have to get here an hour early to get my mom in the arena and get a close parking spot. I have to let her off at the door, go park, then go in and get her to her seat. After the game I have to get her to the front door then go get the car and come back and get her. Hence, a close parking spot is necessary. But we are in the arena really early so it's a great time to get caught up with my Internet sites. If I didn't have my iPad, the time would go much slower!

I think it's wonderful that you can still take your mom to the games. You'll really miss that one of these days Gayle...

Sorry. I sat by a guy with an iPad on the plane. I still can't decide if I want one or not.

Is there a reason you're not sure about the IPad Betsi? I haven't even seen one in person...lol....but I like the idea of being able to be online any time and most any where.

Janet, I think it's because I have an iPhone. To me, the iPad is just a bigger version...but of course I don't have one, lol!

You're so funny. I don't have an IPhone or IPad. My son has an IPod Touch and it works great for getting online. It's the same size I think as the IPhone, but that's just a bit small for my eyes...lol. Guess I'll wait till April, but I'm almost sure it's gonna kill me.....rofl

Yep Betsi, the iPad is just a big iPhone (without the phone part, LOL!). I don't like surfing on my iPhone though, it's just too small for my eyes. Since I don't have a laptop right now, the iPad fits the bill for sitting in front of the TV with it in my lap getting on the internet.

I also like the GPS and directions on it - when I'm trying to find a place, I can see where I am driving on my screen. It's the same as a regular car GPS, but seems better somehow. LOL! I like the games too and being able to download and read books.
