It's actually using the same trick as handbrake is using, ffmpeg for encoding. It's the settings that would cause a speed difference.

You will be surprised how much you use this thing,and it is nice to have the 3G option available if you need it.

But you can also think "for only 100 dollar you get twice as much space". Personally I'm glad I got the 64GB. Only got 5GB left now..

However, for the usual google maps things, the wifi-positioning works very well. Especially in an area where google streetview has been around or where lotsa iphones had been running (wifi positinioning depends on the ssid/mac-addresses from wifi-routers in the neighbourhood. If some device with GPS comes around, picks up the wifi-routers SSD/Mac and send it back to a central system, mapping is possible. Streetview does that, so are iphones)
I guess the only place where you'd really need a GPS in the ipad is somewhere in the dessert or at sea, where no wifi-routers has been around.
