So, i was looking at the Ipad and i know that a lot of people are bashing it and what ever but i want one, end of.
I'm living in the UK and they start at £429 for the 16g wifi only, but i'm going on holiday to Australia and they are $629 (£363.080) so i was looking to get one in Australia.
What i was wondering is will it work in the UK? i want one but i mean £429 is a lot but i'd pay £363 for one.
Will it work when i bring it home?

3G no... everything else would work why wouldn't it?
Awesome, Thanks.

Cheers!
Why would you buy an iPad?

They're not that bad and don't ask the OP why he wants one, he just does.
You should be able to get a Micro SIM that works for your iPad in the UK, so it'd be fine afterwards
DealExtreme :v:
Don't get one. You'll only hate yourself when iPad 2.0 comes out in September.
I would say the internet, Ebay stuff like that.

Enjoy it, yeah UK prices are a bit crap. And Americans whine about how much of a fortune it is over there!
OP only wants it to be found "cool" for a month by his hipster "friends".
Nice usage of stereotyping for no reason. I sense jealousy and the fact that you are poor :slick:
get a DealXtreme tablet.
Or an Achros
iPads are horrible, they're going to pretty much fade into obscurity soon I reckon. I mean, how often do you see people talking about them these days?
Let OP waste his money the way he wants.
They are what they are to be honest. Others have tried tablets before and they werent that great. Ipad isnt a laptop which most tablets try to be. Its for people who need giant high powered ipod touches. Whats wrong with that?
There are no alternatives to the ipad, because there is no other giant ipod touches
ipod touch
only downside is its portable
How to multitask on an Ipad.
You buy another one
iPad: Like an over-sized swiss army knife :v:
I don't want to sound like one of those "LOLOLOL APPLE SUX PC IS TEH WEEN!" people.
Especially since, regardless that it is widely known otherwise (due to poorly scripted commercials), both the Mac os running on apple-released hardware and a windows running computer running on otherwise released hardware are Personal computers. That aside, I think the Ipod Touch, the Iphone, and the Ipad are all incredibly stupid products to own. It's not like the technology didn't exist already, in-fact I can buy many cheaper, more powerful products for half the price of any of those products.
tl;dr It would probably be smarter to buy a touch-screen based Palm-Pilot.
I'm not here to displease all those people out there who own or would like to own one of those products, but I'm trying to say that there is a better way instead of being sucked into one of those "It's slimmer and looks better" marketing techniques.
You can't tell me that if some person came up to you and asked you if you wanted an iPad for free you would say no. I sure as hell want one, but I wouldn't pay for one.

Is that why they're great to use?
:smug:
You may think people who own them are all APPLE maniacs, but seriously... you are alone in the world without an ipod. Not saying its really bad or anything, just saying that it seems a bit unnecessary to not have an ipod in this day and age. iTunes is the most major marketplace, I just can't see using it would be useful unless you had an ipod of some kind.
If you can't afford it, why don't people just say.
Yes its expensive, thats why I think Macs aren't for me. But this is a friggin portable multimedia device.
Why are there a bunch of Apple haters in this thread? Atleast Apple isn't a bunch of greedy bastards like Microsoft. I have an Ipod Touch and I love it. If I had the Iphone, I'm sure I'd love it too. All of you would. More of the people that I know and have a smart phone all think that getting an Iphone would be an upgrade if they were to get one. You could buy everything that a smart phone/iphone has for cheaper prices, but a smart phone/iphone is a lot more convienant.

I think the fact that they have faith in Video Calling is something people should admire. Video calling is something that we are gonna need, people have let that fail because it was shit too expensive and crap in general.
Sure they have made mistakes, but faults that people are creating are just not major enough to make it a bad device. Thats why other devices fail, major mistakes make them a bad gadget to use.

Thanks =)
You should wait for an tablet by the end of the years.
And you should rather get a Adam Notion ink when it comes out at november or so, basic model should be costing about 320$, and it looks pretty good.
