    Thanks.
    Is it as simple as plug and play?

    yes - insert sim, and instant internet :)

    btw heres some crappy iphone pictures of my cover that came - photos do not do it justice. I feel like I am holding a first edition of some old book when I use the ipad now - very cool.

    TRue, but I can't seem to watch any YouTube links, for instance a link posted here on the forum.

    Youtube links work just fine. Some are embedded into threads and you can watch them without it launching the youtube app, other videos which embedding is disabled will launch the youtube app.

    Even vimeo allows you to watch videos on the ipad.

    Can you copy and paste the link or thread post that is giving you troubles to troubleshoot it further?

    In English :)o) does that mean you can use your iphone to get the 'net on your ipad? If so, can you still use the iphone as a phone while hot spotting?

    Not all Youtube videos show up in the app, I believe because the iPad app only supports videos updated in a particular file format. Add a Safari bookmark to your homescreen of youtube.com and use that as a Youtube 'app' and you'll be able to watch all videos.

    I won a ipad last week from the local Mini dealer, I'm surprised with myself that I've gone this long without one.

    We've got the same cover :).

    I never knew I wanted an iPad, I've ridiculed them since the first one came out saying it was just an iPhone but magnified and couldn't phone...

    They're AWESOME! Although I've no idea which apps I really need...Have a couple of games for my little brothers (mostly angry birds...).

    Try to get 'Water'. It's about this croc name Swampy. Very addictive game. Makes you think more actually.

    I finally bought 'Djay' too about a week ago. Need to find some time to start fiddling with it :)

    Wow! I happen to (almost) agree, but I've been called a turtleneck wearing fanboi more than once! ;)

    But, didn't you used to be a somewhat vociferous critic of the thing? No matter, you're onboard now it seems :)

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Nope, never been a critic of ipad2. I didn't care for the first on though. iTunes...now there's something to be critical of. It needs to go right in the trash.

    Does anyone make good sync software for the pc?

    OK, sorry, my bad.

    I assume you're talking Windows PC? If yes, can't help there but with the new OS and iCloud does it still remain a "problem"?

    I haven't tried any, but I believe there's a few good ones starting to appear on Linux btw - Maybe time to bite that bullet?

    Cheers,
    Ian

    While I love mine and find it almost indispensable it does have its quirks.
    I have ongoing issues loading and sending mail. Oddly enough my i-phone 4 on the same network and the same OS (?) does not share the issues.
    Apple is perplexed as a replacement I-pad has the same behavior.
