I -pad advice.

[Rainbow08]

I am looking to buy an I- Pad computer with slide out keyboard? , mainly because I am not permanently residing in one place due to my job which involves travelling. I don't really want the hassle of carrying a laptop around along with other luggage.
I want something simple and reliable. Browse the net while on the go and down load some books and watch the occasional movie. Am just confused and no expert on what to get. Thanks for reading my thread and any advice.

None of that involves a keyboard. What do you need the keyboard for ?

How about a netbook? Smaller and lighter than a laptop.

I have an ipad and I must say I find it brilliant for web browsing. Have not watched movies on it, just Youtube. Fits in handbag. I dont have 3G, but there is free wifi almost everywhere nowadays. You might also consider a Galaxy iTab.

I agree - definitely not the case here in Dublin anyway.
