Hi, I would like to buy an iPad but I’m not sure which one. What I am going to do with it is this: I’ll definitely use iTunes, Youtube, download a few handfuls of apps, watch movies, and use the program similar to microsoft word but apple style (Do you know what I mean?), also I’ll probably use more things once I explore the iPad a bit more. I want one that is a good price and has a enough space for what I’m going to use it for. What do you guys think?
I was thinking the 32GB but I’m not sure…

I’ve bought 3. Mine and a friend I bought for is the lower one. My other friend I got the 32gb because she loves e-books. I haven’t even come close to using all my space. With what you want to do, 32gb is good

I bought the 32 GB ipad and I sort of regret doing it because it’s was too much space for me.
I have about 700 songs, 60 or so apps, and I have a lot of docs for school. If I could go back, I would buy the 16 GB one but in all reality, if you will have more than 2000 songs, handfuls of apps, videos, and docs, you should get the 32 GB one. To me, it seems as if you will have a lot of songs, videos, apps, docs, and you will love some of the features it has so I would recommend the 32 GB for you even though it is about $150 more than the 16 GB one. Here are the best prices I could find for you:Hope this helped!

Definatley get the iPad!
It’s an unbelievably cool product! I’ve had it for a week now, and it has exceeded my expectations in every area but one. It is such a pleasurable experience to hold it and interact with the machine. It is a very intuitive, tactile, and personalinteraction with the web.
Having a touch screen to interact with the web is a very different experience than using a mouse.
It is NOT supposed to be a netbook, so reviews which compare what it doesn’t have, miss the point.
This is a whole new computing device to accomplish perhaps 80% of what most people use computers for for all the basic uses (email, web surfing, music, movies (the Netflix app rocks!), games, ebook, magazine reading (Zinio is great), and the news (the USA Today app is a joy to use) it is great.I have already been finding myself on my laptop much less often than before.
The iWork apps are a pleasure to use. The one area that seems to be more convoluted than it should be, is printing. You can’t print directly from it. You have to either email it to yourself, or transfer the file over when you sync with iTunes. But it looks like the 4.0 version of the operating system is going to provide a lot of fixes which people are looking for.
A few years from now, tablets like this will be everywhere, and those who are on computers are mainly using them for work. I knew the iPad would be a big hit when my 70 old mother, after seeing mine, decided she was going to get one too!
As for buying them, you’re best bet for the cheapest price is off eBay where i’ve seen them for $170 shipped or on Amazon.com
I’ve provided links to both below, your choice and best of luck!!
