An Ipad is not meant to replace your computer, its meant as an adjunct. I’d consider getting one if it didn’t require a high monthly service charge. Right now I love my kindle because I get better reception and can down load books, do email, listen to music and play games, though not in color, better than on my computer because all I have is Hughes net, which stinks. I could never down load a whole book on Hughes Net. I’m thinking of dropping the Hughes and just going with ATT for the computer, as well.

It doesn't require a monthly service charge... 3 of the models do not even come with 3G... they just use WiFi.

Wow, I assumed that it would be like an iphone with a monthly service charge. I want one. Satellite internet is absolutely the worst. Any automatic down load or security update is enough to exceed the usage limit and cause them to shut down your computer for 24 hours. It’s really the worst.
