some people saying iPad 3 out in September. This would seem ridiculous to me.

No doubt I will be hovering over the pre order button by 7pm either way

I wish they would do a mouse for the iPad. I could then definately use it for trading.

iOS4.3 with some extra stuff but no real surprises in there. I was hoping for a resolution upgrade but looks like I am out of look.

I actually think I prefer the xoom

I like the idea of Airplay

Here is a comparison table for some tablets: -

It's all about the software though. Airplay is cool. Am looking forward to wirelessly streaming stuff from room to room

Can you download Betangel on any of these touchpad devices on the market? Ideal for trading away from the PC.

I've been a bit disappointed with Apple TV to be honest. Then again I use an HD Plasma and so comparing quality is a bit unfair.

I had heard a bluetooth mouse hack was available - I will try and see if I still have the info.

Yeh it is only in 720 not 1080 although there was a rumor they were bringing 1080 in a future update. To be honest I'm mainly buying it so I can send pics and stuff from my iPad to my tv and because I have some big speakers I want to use airplay with and listen to music.

What's the Bluetooth hack???

The Bluetooth hack was to allow people to use a mouse with the iPad.
