Does anyone know of a legit place to order these now? They were released in the states last week I believe, so some company must ship them over here now?

I will.

Someone bare witness to this. When it's released we'll do it properly and when it goes to pot i accept paypal.

That keyboard/mousepad case is sick - twinned with a fully functional Microsoft software suite it could be a game changer for business travel, something like cross between a Blackberry and a notebook. I have the logitech keyboard case for my iPad and I always end up going back to the laptop for emails. Only a matter of time before Apple bring out a similar case though.

Much more than that, it was selling for £140 at fireplace sale and it was £399 retail

Same for the Hp one.

Who has moved from the 2 to the 3 ? Is the difference really noticable, worth the extra cash ?

Screen is gorgeous.

Haven't noticed a huge difference in speed but some have.

I'll be honest, the screen hasn't impressed me that much even watching hd films. If it wasn't for the fact it was free i'd have kept my ipad1 if i'd have known.

iPad 3 = iPad 2 > iPad 1

Don't see the big difference in iPad 2 and 3 - in regards to being a must have

I quite like it simply for the fact that all my desktop tabs and bookmarks can be accessed from my iPhone/iPad now, so I can easily switch between them. I heard it benchmarks slower versus Safari for Javascript or something, because Apple doesn't allow apps to implement certain things, so Google are limited. But so far, it's been running fine for me and I haven't noticed any lag or anything.

Chrome is better for me. On Safari Fuk used to make safari crash, no crashing yet on chrome. Like it.

These tablet hybrids are deffo the way forward. I want a tablet that works like a normal laptop that splits, what is on the market like this, i think asus do one, is this new microsoft thing a laptop in a tablet form ? (Dont need anything super clever, just multimedia and a bit of work/excel etc ) Ipad for me was great but couldnt ditch the laptop as no usb/memory expansion

I've been to lots of meetings since the Ipad came out, and not once has anyone ever turned-up with an ipad and used if for something bussiness related, like showing us nice graphs, etc.
Microsoft are fooling themsleves (as are Apple) that bussiness people (or anyone else really) use these things for anythign more than playing Angry Birds.
These things are basically toys.

Virgin Money banks have iPads to showcase their services.

There's a few cafes in San francisco that use them as pos'
