Another question I'd have is how the iPad handles SD cards if you're actively editing a sound or video file stored on one and there isn't enough room for the file on the iPad alone.



I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I would never have bought a Nook for my grillfiend if it hadn't had a card slot. It isn't just a matter of storage that determines the need. It's also a matter of how the Nook's set up.



Hans is anything but ignorant. He isn't coming up with excuses for hating Apple, he's explaining his reasons for not wanting to use Apple products.

Consumers are people with individual needs by nature, not cheerleaders for Team [insert brand]. If Hans's needs aren't met by "the cloud," who is anyone else to tell him to modify his needs, let alone, that he's "ignorant"? I would never presume to tell you that you were an "Apple fanboy" or a "sheep" or any of those annoying ad hominem arguments against Apple Users, the Cult made by people who refuse to listen to the owners of specific Apple products. Let's talk about features, usability and price points, not ideology. I'm still deciding whether I need a tablet of any kind made by any company.
Totally agree. I was merely trying to correct the misinformation that it was an overpriced unusable toy as described by Belfaborac & then Hans commenting that apple only wants people to use iTunes & not side load content. These comments are....ignorant (see below). It's perfectly fine if it doesn't work for you, but to say its unusable or that you can't get content o to it without iTunes is false, false, false.

Ignorance means without knowledge. For example, I am ignorant about other tablets, therefore I don't comment on them. It's not an insult.
