I use my ipad for exactly what i mentioned above. I love to have the chance to add some apps but am currently happy with goodreader. That's almost all I need besides Safari (I'd love to see IE8 though because I'm more used to it).
Other than that, jailbreaking right now would only be an option if my Ipad would lack a function or app I'm desperately missing. I wouldn't know of any right now. |

Haven't felt the need to jailbreak my iPad (or iPhone) either. I guess I must be missing that whole "usable" aspect of it

Also, Dalvik isn't aligned to neither Java SE nor Java ME class libraries, and has its own class library, which, as far as I know, is a closed-source implementation of Apache's Harmony-Java. |

In my experience Apple's products work best if you leave them as is. If you are unhappy with the functionality better buy something else. |

From people I know who have jailbroken their iPhones, there has been no issues.
Be interesting to know your experiences with your iphones after jailbreaking |

Obviously, given the much improved specs, the Iphone 4 should handle real multitasking a lot better. But definitely not better than many other phones on the market with faster processors. |

I love my iPad!! Have had it since May, and have used it every day. Asked for a Sony eReader, got the iPad instead. I used it to read and have access to various readers: BN eReader, iBooks, Kindle, and now Borders. I can shop around for the lowest price and see what's being offered for free. When I'm not reading, I'm on Facebook, checking email, playing Words With Friends, or letting my son enjoy a book of his own. I wanted a reader, but got so much more. Oh, and I don't own any Apple PC's, only have an old iPod and now my iPad. Not much use for productivity, but I have a laptop for work stuff. Purely for enjoyment and entertainment for me, and I am definitely enjoying it!
