Tablet advice please

Personally I couldn't see that difference in screen quality, fractionally crisper definition, but it had to be pointed out to me. Even the salesman agreed. So I say go for the iPad 2 version.

The 3 will benefit much more from any future iOS upgrades. The 2 is good but not as good as the 3.

Immaterial anyway - Tesco have no stock! My money was refunded! Swines!

I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, 16gb 3g version a few weeks ago.  Absolutely delighted with it.  It has a bigger screen than an iPad, uses Android 4.1 jelly bean which is fast, plenty of free apps + you can download any app from anywhere (you are not restricted to what Apple say you must download).  Build quality is very very good, no concerns at all.

i second that .Had mine over a year now and very pleased with.

The Rimms and us have i pad 2's.  We facetime each other on nearly a daily basis, all free.  Clarity is fine, no fuzzyness at all.  At present being offered systems from iPad 3 but advised to hold on as some problems after download, Apple are working on resolving these.  Go for the 2 if I were you if its just for personal use.

Comet appear to be offering the best deal on ipad3 64GB at £559.

My question is do you think I should I wait until I am in the UK over xmas until early Jan or buy now? Is this too new to come down much in price bearing in mind this offer is about £100 cheaper than anyone else is offering.

I am perfectly happy with my Samsung Tab though.

Amazon price has dropped since I last checked a couple of days ago so maybe I'll wait a while then if this is the trend, not too worried by twenty quid price difference here or there.

I want an ipad3 though thanks Eric

It might be worth waiting till you come over Nichola  to buy in Duty Free.  I am heading for Jersey next weekend and will check out at Glasgow Airport  if you have not bought already.

[nichola]

oooh yes let me know prices that would be cool...

We have ipad 2 and well pleased with it, i know a few people with the galaxy Tab and they say it is great so if going for price go for the Galaxy if needing quality ipad 2, minimum 8gb which is enough for personnel use if you are not downloading a lot of stuff.
