Steve,
I recently won an iPad on a local radio station, but I am unable to access the UK itunes store through my iPad.
Is there a confirmed date as to when this will go live?
Kind Regards
Adam Venn

These things will die off pretty quickly i reckon.
If Apple had put a version of safari on it i think it would have been an awseome piece of kit.
From what ive seen, itr does the same as an Ipod touch, but bigger!

That must be why so many other manufacturers are making similar products. Definitely just a fad that will die off soon.

I think that would be gearing towards a netbook too much.

Would also have cost about 2k if they made something that size to run a desktop OS.
