Ekona Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 The UK is never getting 4G on the same frequency as the US, so the 4G iPads will never be able to make use of that speed over here. IIRC they're still arguing over exactly what frequency they are going to use, so it still hasn't even been decided which networks will be offering 4G. We're so backwards over here sometimes, it hurts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRH 350Z Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I got an iPad 3 yesterday (white, 16GB, not 3G); this is my first experience of a tablet and Apple. The screen is lovely and it seems that everything Apple is sexy... Even opening the box seems nice somehow!? I do like it but I have noticed a couple of annoying things already. I can't believe that Adobe flash is not supported. Within 30 min of general Internet browsing I came across three websites where I couldn't view videos. Is there any (legal) way around this? Also it doesn't seem to support a link up with my Samsung Galaxy S2 - for 3G?? This is not a major issue to me but annoying nevertheless.

Chris`I Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I just make sure when I am away anywhere that the hotel has wifi I've found 3G works better on my iPad than iPhone, I assume because it has a bigger antenna. Still a bit woeful though. Just make sure you dont depend on it. Thats why I bought a Garmin GPS (800) for the bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope.........Apple do NOT like anything interfering with their Naziesque grip on their techonology. They don't want you to link to ANYTHING that isn't Apple basically. Flash isn't supported on any Apple device I don't think. Basically if your going to buy Apple then you need to buy everything Apple - Phone, MP3 player, Tablet, Computer (to a letter extent).

Daveb99 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 +1 for the iPad 3, sorry "New iPad" Awesome screen and worth every penny. You won't want to use an iPad 1 or 2 once you've used a 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
