BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
There is nothing like the iPad. My laptop is heavier, desktop is tethered to home. I read more books on the iPad and it is a pleasure. I use all Apple products, so evereything is in complete sync. I bought it because I could, but am completely surprised how it has become such a useful tool for my lifestyle. I rely on my laptop and iPhone less. This is the perfect compliment.
Pros: Good Battery Life, Fast, Adequate Storage, Comfortable Keyboard, Compact, Lightweight
Cons: Lacks External Ports
Best Uses: Video Viewing, Word Processing, Web Browsing, Mail contacts life

I have grandchildren that wait in line to play their favorite game and never worry about it being too fragile. It is solid. Looking forward to more iPad apps. Typing is easy enough. I also use a wireless keyboard that works well. Can create documents and print them just fine.

PC Guy sees Apple appeal
Reviewed by CJ (Quality Oriented) from Babylon, NY on Jun 25, 2010
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I use this for information on the go and personal entertainment. I am most impressed with the screen quality and how rich native apps are to interact with. Amazed at speed when used on WiFi through FiOS, a bit of lag using slower 3G or WiFi on slow internet connections. I still prefer my laptop for serious web browsing, but this is perfect for occassional use as it does not have all the problems of a laptop (battery life, weight, screen angle/brightness, heat, etc). Don't like Safari, many websites don't work right, even the ones that are NOT Flash based. Apple should have included a built in HDMI port for screen mirroring. The VGA adapter requires each App to be coded to output to external display. An SD card reader should also be built in. Having to carry around a bag of adaptors defeats some of the pros.
Pros: Apps, Adequate Storage, Fast, Good Battery Life, Compact
Cons: VGA adaptor uses, Lacks External Ports
Best Uses: Video Viewing, Documents on the go

Best toy i have ever bought...
Reviewed by Joe (Quality Oriented) from StLouis on Jun 24, 2010
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Steve Jobs calls it "magical"...all I know is that I turned from a big skeptic to an advid advocate who has convinced several of my friends to buy one. I 've drank the cool-aide. Whether for entertainment or business use, the technology has arrived. I still can't type normally on the virtual keyboard, but two-finger-pecks are fast enough. I also wish the screen wasn't so reflective.
Pros: Fast, Adequate Storage, Compact, Good Battery Life
Best Uses: Video Viewing, Web Browsing, It's a business tool too
