Bought one! Hee hee.....

32gb, wi-fi/3G, with a 02 sim (I use vodafone on my phone and signal is shite here), and a natty case........excited a bit now!

Got a nice Belkin sleeve for 15 quid for it too http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-F8N277CW ... 710&sr=8-1

Worried now about my preorder at krcs at nottingham as I have just read this http://www.channelregister.co.uk/2010/0 ... d_dealers/ .
I have phoned the head office as the store is not answering and they said all is fine...............
Have they not heard that report yet ?

Can't you just cancel and buy it online?

Anyone tried this for mulitple non refreshing tabs in Safari http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=913055

Cool might give it a go later.

I see people are still panicking about the number of writes flash can take. Despite the fact that for any normal use and especially for modern flash with wear levelling, it will almost certainly outlast the rest of the device / computer.

And maybe even the person using it!

A friend failed to pick me up a case/camera kit whilst in the US, so I just tried to order them from the UK site. Annoyingly these now have June availability (June 7th for case, just June for the camera kit), not the May 28th they said last week. So I guess they've presold a fair few accessories too...

Hmm, thinking about it, my MiFi takes a MicroSD. It could well work just the same (AirStash looks just like a wifi router to me).

If it does, then it would perhaps be better to buy one from 3 for £50 and get it unlocked (15 euros) as you'll have that and a portable 3g wifi router all in one....

Will give it a try when I get a moment.

To follow up on this...

Bizarrely you can only access the Micro SD slot when the Mi-Fi is connected to a device by USB. It cannot be accessed wirelessly.

Pity.

Hell, even non-modern flash without wear levelling lasts pretty damn well (cf my 1998 Newton, which is still going strong, as is the same-era "massive" 16MB Flash PCMCIA card plugged into it)

I can't imagine taking a crap without my iPad now.

Cant really see that tagline appearing on Apple literature anytime soon

[Cloudane]

Why not, I'd buy it

Coming soon: the iCrapper. With a multi-touch screen that just swings out on an arm, so that you don't have to put it down while you grab some bog paper.

[Deckard]

And then the iWanker ? Wipe clean one handed relief ?

I'd've thought some kind of combination of the iPad and the Toto Neorest would be the ultimate geek throne. Plus you'd never need to worry about running out of TP, and think how soothing it'd be after a tindaloo .

Had a play with one today, very good screen, still not sure what I'd use one for other than a very posh and expensive remote for my Squeezebox (what my Touch gets used for 90% of the time).
