10:35 am: And another, this one for iPhone 4 only–Personal Hotspot.

Hmm MifI from the iPhone 4??  Tel Co's aren't going to like that.

They dont like it much but Apple have no choice, my old windows mobile has been doing wifi access to HSDPA for 2 years now and Android can run 2-3 simultaneous mifi connections also using HSDPA if available, so telco's are already dealing with the extra load they just need to realise every man and there iphone will be sucking data into laptops.  Hence they have all started limiting there limitless data tarrifs.

On the ipad 2 im not sure if they have made a big enough step up not just with the hardware but with the software as well my problme with ipads is your data (without using a third party application) is still tied to itunes thats just doesnt work as a concept for something like an ipad which is supposed to be a mobile office, it needs to be a stand alone computer with the ability to support flash memory and standard USB drive support for drag and drop data management something apple will never do as they will loose the control they crave.

There are also some very exciting processor technologies coming by the end of the year from Nvidia and Qualcom, so dont be suprised to find android 3.0 powered tablets with quad core processors and distinct graphic interfaces and bespoke software and games by the end of the year, and an app store that doesnt take 30% of revenues.

3 have an unlimited data option still available. They permit tethering to share the connection, too.

I went in the Apple Store in Southampton yesterday and they've knocked 150 quid off the top model.

We bought a 32GB Wifi iPad last year and my wife loves it. The one thing missing is the able to connect an external hard drive to transfer photos, if this were possible I would be as happy as a man with a hat full of t1ts!

If iPad2, or in fact the Ipad3 which is rumoured to be announced in September offered this I could justify upgrading, however as it stands there isn't enough change in specification for me to warrant the expense for what we use it for

^^^

Surely your pics are on a HD in the first place for them to download to the iPad anyway?

Or are you loading them using Bump or the Photo Transfer App?

I too have an iPad1 and I love it, there is probably not a day that goes by that someone uses it in my house. I wont be upgrading this year though, you just get into that cycle of unhappiness ....

This app is available in the UK store for £1.79, I just couldn't find the right link. Failing that, you can just email them to your pooter, surely?

You can connect External HDD to the iPad and have been able to for a fair few months now.

If you email, you can only email 5 pics at any one time.
