Sometimes the heated topic is about the lack of built in SD card reader or lack of USB port or lack of a webcam....
All things the potential buyer for ereading purposes don't care about. I also need to know how good the screen will be for reading and loading of ebooks into Stanza and iBooks. What I'm
really hoping is that it will work as smoothly as adding one's own music,video and audiobooks to iTunes is now. Like if you could take any non DRM book in any format and add it to iBooks where it will be smoothly converted to the necessary readable format (like for music) ....sigh..... I guess that is too much to hope for though.
Sorry if this is an ignorant question, but why exactly does the iPad need Flash? I watch YouTube videos on my iPhone all the time, surf the web etc. and I've yet to run into any videos or sites I can't view...
