But as you say, to you the iPad seems to be the only device that suits your needs at the moment. But hopefully we've helped show you that there are other devices actually available now with a range of capabilities that could well suit other buyers.

Oh I dont doubt that graham and in the most part I have disagreed with some of peoples statements that there are similiar or such devices available and they are cheaper and that the ipad is a rip off but frankly the fact that there really isnt a clear cheaper similiar option shows that isnt true...yet

The convertibles are good and if i were replacing a laptop then maybe but as a media consumption device any keyboard adds unnecccesary weight and size.
