Not jet. But I will try it, befor selling it (IF I sell it). Apple has an awful policy about uploading content, firmware update and other stuff, but the devices are usually good.

If you aren't going to keep the iPad, you should disqualify yourself now. Sorry LCF, but this contest should be for people who definitely will keep and use the iPad.

Yes, I agree. That would give me a slightly better chance of winning.

Look at it this way, if I win it, you'll have a slightly better chance of buying one at a discount!

It won't even be opened!

Ha! Even at a discount I couldn't afford to buy an iPad.

Well that's me out then I accidentally and by accidentally I mean I wasn't paying attention and just took the survey without really knowing that it was a big competition thingie. I really have no use for nor do I want an iPad. So if the mods could take my name out of the running, that'd be cool

I would keep the iPad, because I really need a good, portable writing device. (On the few instances that I've seen one in an Apple store, I felt it would be especially useful for any writer-on-the-go.)

Best wishes to whoever ultimately wins!

The best portable writing device that I know:

pencil and paper

You can get it in different colors and shapes, it doesn't lose battery life...

I did the survey, because it was for MR. If I win an iPad for doing it - so be it. At my current financial state I might actually sell it without opening the box. Not that I wouldn't enjoy having one, it's just not my priority at the moment.

Yeah, but it's hard to import into a text file.

I have to print everything I do with a pencil or pen because my handwriting is so crappy even I can't read it.
