[QUOTE=r0b0tsquid;26903399]Um. How is this NSFW? On topic: Fruit ninja.[/QUOTE]"not suitable for work" to talk about apple stuff when you work on microsoft. [editline]23rd December 2010[/editline] Which I dont ofc.

essentials: Fruit Ninja Cut the Ropes Angry Birds NOVA/NOVA 2 (like halo rip-offs but whatever) Real Racing/Real Racing 2 Infinity Blade [editline]23rd December 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Hizan;26903128]Worms 2 Armageddon t'is okay[/QUOTE] why are you suggesting it if it's "okay"

Moto X Mayhem, Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds. Also Geodefence if it is on iPad.

I agree with Rage HD it's quite fun.

[QUOTE=YWNJack;26950888]World of Goo. Can't wait to get my ipad in 1 hr + half :D[/QUOTE] Me too! I'm getting a ColorWare All-Black iPad!

Angry Birds Scrabble (love a bit of Scrabble) Cut The Rope Doodle Jump Sims 3 if you fancy something a bit different. Definately angry birds :)

You guys should all have waited for the iPad 2.

[QUOTE=SA Spyder;26959097]You guys should all have waited for the iPad 2.[/QUOTE] I didn't find that the iPad 2 would have anything extra I needed. If the iPad 2 has FaceTime, Cameras or a gyro I won't care. I sorta regret buying my iPhone 4. I've never used FaceTime and I've never used the gyro. The extra ram is nice though, and I love the retina display. My only concern about the iPad is the 256M of RAM. Needs 512.

Funny, i got an iPad for christmas. This thread will help me, too.

I love my iPad and everything but it's fucking inexcusable when it comes to how horribly it handles multiple Safari tabs. Using an iPhone 4 which has 512MB of RAM, I can already see a million ways how the extra RAM helped the overall performance and how apps actually stayed open in the background. I say Apple should just future-proof the iPad 2 a bunch and just give it a gigabyte of RAM. But then again, it's Apple, and they'd never think that far into the future.

[QUOTE=i3S;26962800]The A4 probably will stay clocked at 1GHz.[/QUOTE] That's a shame, then. Looks like the iPad will get its ass handed to it by other tablets like the Playbook and other Honeycomb tablets. Why aren't Apple about pushing the envelope anymore? Do they enjoy being behind all the time? Their devices are excellent but why don't they act in their customers' best interests?

actually the RAM doesn't really help performance at all as the only things that use the extra 256MB of RAM are cellular tasks like texting, calling, 3G, etc. as per Apple.

[QUOTE=M_B;26967008]actually the RAM doesn't really help performance at all as the only things that use the extra 256MB of RAM are cellular tasks like texting, calling, 3G, etc. as per Apple.[/QUOTE] False. With the 3GS, amount of free RAM is usually 100 if well maintained. With the 4, it's something like 350+. That extra RAM is a huge boost and you definitely notice it going from a 3GS to a 4. Tabs don't reload as much, apps don't close in the background as much, etc.

ok how does 350MB of free RAM mean the extra 256MB is actually usable to anything outside of cellular management? the largest difference to cause an improvement between the 3GS and the 4 is because of the CPU, really. the iPad also only has 256MB of RAM and it actually handles heavier tasks [editline]25th December 2010[/editline] and yes, offloading cellular stuff to somewhere aside for the main RAM would of course yield improvement [editline]25th December 2010[/editline] could you jailbreak it to allow other apps to access it? yeah, pretty sure that's part of the jailbreak. but with a vanilla iPhone 4, only cellular activity, or perhaps it was just integrated applications in general, are all that can use that 256MB of RAM. you can't, for example, have a game use 350MB

God, you're thick. I never said a game would use that much. I said Safari tabs don't reload as often and apps stay open for far longer. Don't even bother arguing, it's pretty much a fact. The extra RAM definitely benefits the overall experience in terms of shit not having to reload and reopen, and that's on a small screen. On a resolution as relatively big as the iPad's, 256MB of RAM is pathetic bullshit and you'd notice worlds of difference with twice the RAM. Case in point, the iPhone 4 closes background apps far less than the 3GS does, far far less than the iPad does, and forces Safari tab reloads less than the 3GS does, and far less than the iPad does.

there seems to be a failure of gears clicking on your end there bud here's a less than perfect picture diagram that hopefully helps [img]http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/8682/shitpb.jpg[/img]

That one air traffic control program is iPad friendly.

[QUOTE=M_B;26971672]there seems to be a failure of gears clicking on your end there bud here's a less than perfect picture diagram that hopefully helps [/QUOTE] I'm done with your shit. The extra RAM makes all the difference in the world and you'd know that if you stopped mouthshitting and started actually talking from experience with the multiple devices.

god you're such a little baby and you still don't understand it [editline]26th December 2010[/editline] it's not even that difficult of a concept

You make it seem like having 256 MB of ram is the end of the world. Yeah ok 512 gives you the ability to have more things open, but lets say you have an ipad, and a couple of apps open, and you're taking up 196 MB of ram. Now, you have 60 MB of ram free. with 512 MB of ram, you now have 312 MB of ram free. What is that ram doing? Nothing. Unused ram is wasted ram. To be perfectly honest, I don't like having more than 5 apps running at once on my ipad, and not because it slows it down (because it doesn't), just because I don't like having them open. It's like cluttering up the task bar in windows. I only ever have a couple of applications open on my computer because that's all I want. Just because I can doesn't mean I want to. At this point (note: not in a couple of years) 256 seems perfectly reasonable for a platform like iOS which is designed itself to not use a lot of ram. I'm not saying there's no point to having more ram, just at this point it will make it more expensive to produce for a not-so-big impact.

Except you don't have those 60MB free. With everything closed, you have about 100MB on the iPad. Having a couple of Safari tabs open and then some apps puts that down to fucking nothing, and then apps start closing in the background and Safari tabs start reloading, and god forbid you've jailbroken your device, it'll run like ass. For anybody that's used an iPad extensively for long enough, 256MB is clearly not enough, especially since the OS takes 150MB of it anyway.
