But they might not want to look too closely at the new iPad's screen. Once you get a load of that Retina display, it's hard to go back to anything else.

Note to self: stay away from Apple stores for the next few paychecks.

Jason knocks another review out of the park... the live question answering is almost just for show due to him going into such great detail

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

Apple please do a software update and add Siri asap and this would be a 10/10 perfect iPad

Nice review. What webcam is Jason using to record his video review (it's so sharp)?

It's actually a Sony HD camcorder.

It would be great but personally I don't think a tablet requires the type of voice assistance that Siri provides.

Great review! I can't wait to get one. I'm planning on picking one up when I graduate in May.

I was debating between the Wifi only and the LTE version, but I realized that I should also consider my iPhone 4S. Since it can make its own wireless hotspot, I wouldn't need to worry about spending an additional $130 for the LTE model. While I wouldn't get LTE's speed, I'd save some money. It's worth considering if you have an iPhone and don't care about LTE speed.

Someone please explain to me why Apple is so resistant to including a micro/mini SD slot. It would solve so many issues people are going to have with file/movie/book storage.

Thanks for the great review, I am planing on buying the 32GB Verizon Cellular iPad.

I have a question though. I am living on Egypt right now, and I would be here the rest of the year, they have a great HSPA+ network here, and if I understood correctly from the review, "it should just work" with the new iPad even with the Verizon cellular version, right?
If thats the case then my real question is: would I be able to use the Personal Hotspot here (overseas), or is that a feature only available back at the states??
