The big deal for me is that it is almost unheard of for me to gush over a gadget. I didn't do so with iPhone… Heck, I've gone back and forth several times liking it and not liking it. But that said, I have kept coming back to it because of the apps and ease of use.

Gorgeous display; Long battery life; Fast performance; Great full screen apps

Lack of Flash web page support; No 3rd party multitasking

This iPad Review is very detailed and covers : user experience, web browsing, eBooks, PDF, display quality and everything that you need to know about the iPad.

The iPad, like most of Apple's product line, is a polarizing device. There are those that are going to love it no matter what, and a separate camp that will refuse to even touch one. I think I fall somewhere in between those two extremes. I was critical of the device when it was first launched...

Breakfast in New York. Sitting in a booth at Cafe Habana, people are staring as I type emails on the iPad. For now, it grabs too much attention, for better or worse, with its big swoopy animations and skittles glow-erific screen. It's not as strange as if I were hammering away on a laptop.

The Apple iPad is out and all the reviews are hitting the web fast. We take a turn at the entry level 16GB WiFi model to see if it is really worth it.

The iPad is a great tool if you only need the capabilities of an iPhone with a large screen. Sure, email and the browser excel here, but to make it perfect for everything else, it needs much better security and you'll have to purchase the extra dock and keyboard to make working on the move viable.

SOME ARE CALLING the Apple Ipad a potential replacement for the laptop , so we've put it to the test to see if it really lives up to expectations. At the Ipad's heart is an A4 chip which actually is fast.

Speedy A4 processor; eye popping screen

Cost; 3G option is even dearer; Lack of expansion capabilities; no peripheral ports; inability to load software other than what's approved by Apple

The iPad tablet is not a replacement for any other device you own. It is designed for media consumption, and on that front, it delivers brilliantly.

Original; gorgeous design; Fast performance; Extremely long battery life; Superb touch capability

Very few ports; Attracts lots of fingerprints; No Flash support

Asking you if you want to buy an iPad isn't just a question of taste or preference, it's a question of lifestyle: Do you want to add an additional middlewear device to your life that fits somewhere in-between a smartphone and a netbook?

Good for the john or sofa, but not much else.
