I know, I'm really contemplating it... I don't know if I should just go get one, or wait until next year until Gen2.... I use my iPhone to read so many articles online, I think it would be perfect... Anyone iPad owners have any light to shed? Is it worth it? My problem is that the 16GB model is so expensive. I wouldn't mind throwing the money down if the base model was at least 32GB.]]>Apr 14th 2010 1:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/Apr 14th 2010 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/Also, wouldn't holding a tablet in front of your face make for some mighty shaky videos?

Easy prediction: Apple drops the price of the iPad mid-cycle and/or offers this device at close to half price of an updated 2nd generation. It all depends on if the marketplace accepts competitors products or not, so let's not make anything more bold than "possibilities", and let's definitely not misinterpret history. ]]>Apr 14th 2010 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/"I've never used skype and don't plan on it at all"

Just from Testing it out at the Apple store, I noticed the ABC app to be a little buggy, but the video quality was great. There were times when I would turn it on its side, and it wouldn't automatically rotate, and it crashed on me once. The Netflix app wouldn't even launch. I restarted the iPad and still had the same problem. I'm sure these bugs will be worked out soon.]]>Apr 14th 2010 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/My ABC app at home was perfect great picture and no delay.

It's good that ABC and Netflix wrote these apps in xCode, or otherwise they would be buggy.. Apple the asshole of the Internet!

No. The video quality has been brilliant ever since i got the ipad. Have you checked your wifi speed?

Hopefully other networks will take notice. The ABC app is perfect, imo. The ads are non intrusive and I think its fair to have them as long as the app does indeed stay free.

Just awesome awesome stuff...]]>Apr 14th 2010 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/abc-reveals-ipad-app-statistics-says-its-pleased-with-result/

I simply made mention of all that the iPad was missing (e.g. built-in web cam, media card readers, etc.), and my position has not changed regarding the fact that these are needless/glaring omissions in an modern tablet/slate device, but I always made it clear that I would be purchasing a couple for the family.
