Just watched the presentation. Also had another window open on the Apple store and kept refreshing it as it was saying the store would be back online soon and I could get my pre-order in. Instead though they have reduced the ipad 1's by £100. No pre-orders yet although I have registered my interest for one.
Got everything Apple in our house except an ipad so keen to get this one. Though having said that if I had a ipad 1 I would have held off ordering one as it's a reasonable leap but not massive. And there are rumours of a 3 later in the year.

so whos getting one? the ipad 1 never appealed due to the lack of flash which pretty much all websites have. Will the ipad 2 have it, is the question.

Anyone with ipad 1 miss the flash capability, is it restrictive and spoils your surfing?

No, you won't be seeing Flash on an iPad and no, I've not yet missed having it.

I expect I'll have one a couple of days after they are released in the USA but from what I've seen I wouldn't suggest current owners rush to upgrade.

But now, surely the iPad 1 is a steal at 329 for the 16gb one

My mum is buying 2 of them....

Flash...pah, bloated, overused & archaic, html5 will be the standard soon & flash usage will taper off ;-)

2 x iPad2's - 1 x 3G & 1 x wifi only

Very tempting, been waiting for it. But the damn Xoom is hampering my decision to buy!

Go for the BlackBerry Playbook, its a much much better device!

But bb aps are shit

[danch]

Plus RIM software is shit ;-)

[Rsformatc]

The hardware on all these pads are so similar that the software will ultimately be the deciding factor. Android 3.0 looks brilliant but I think another year of Apple domination until the Andoid panel apps catch-up.

[challis349]

I have a Droid phone and dislike it lots compared to the iPhone, will I get a Droid tablet, hell no, I can't see anybody catching Apple for some amount of time, other tablets will make the iPad 2 standard, whilst apple are working on tete 3rd gen, they always seem to be one step ahead at Apple

[bigpops]

I'm the opposite.

I have a cheap Android phone (£99) and I prefer it to the iPhone I had before. Tablet wise the iPad or iPad isn't on the cards for me. Though I would like to play Bejeweled on one.

I want to use a tablet almost purely for convenient web browsing, so tabbed browsing and flash support the two major things I want from a tablet. Honeycomb has both, along with a higher resolution screen in a better aspect ratio .

Html 5 might be the future, but I think it will be a very slow change over. I personally think 5 years minimum until it's mainstream and flash is the rarity.
