I assume by 'OP' you mean me, here (you are the 'OP' - 'original poster' of the thread).
I said I'd like my device to have an SD card and a USB port built in. You're saying you're happy to purchase and use external devices for this. There is no conflict here. The conflict only arises when you try to convince me that I would rather use workarounds instead of simply having the functionality built into the device.

Surely, usb can't be that important.

Because they've produced a really nice machine that a lot of people want. I've said before that I think the iPad is a great, fun machine. It just doesn't happen to be ideal for my requirements - which include the need for a USB port, SD card slot and Flash.
