You can't unless you have JB'd iPhone and run the iPhone as a router. Battery life goes down the pipe though.

Damn right! But it sure beats buying a 3G iPad AND antihero data plan.

keynote says you'll have multitasking in the summer time

now let's see if the web moves to html5 just for the ipad, lol

The OS is snappy and everything feels well polished for something that just launched. There are already a lot of apps that take advantage of the iPad's size and screen. Reading the newspaper on it feels rather natural and there's a cool app that let's you download digital copies of popular magazines. If it works out and costs a little less than actually buying print copies, I might actually never have to buy print ever again.

Browsing is as you'd expect on a big iPhone. Typing will come naturally to anyone that already has an iPhone. If you have large hands, typing with your two thumbs will be easy. Otherwise, putting it down and using the keyboard in landscape works better than I expected as well.

Still playing around. Will take some glamour shots of the device later.

How is the colour gamut of the screen? Is there any way of calibrating it?

I'm waiting for this to come out

Doesn't look bad. No, I seriously doubt you can calibrate the screen.

So am I the only one on RS with one of these?

pretty sure skinnypupp has one, he loooovvves everything apple

i got one tooooooooo

but im not liking the fact that RS shows up on the mobile site

Yeah, there needs to be an option to turn off the mobile browser for RS.

All you had to do was ask ;)

Same here. I love mine but I want to be able to switch or pick normal or mobile versions of websites.

It should load the full site now. If not, follow the directions posted in the RS Mobile thread to help troubleshoot it.

Awesome, I'll test it out later.

Yes!!!!! Non-mobile Revscene website on iPad!!!!!!

I've almost forgotten what the normal version of Revscene looks like. It looks great on the iPad.

Yes, the iPad magically makes sites look great! ;)

I don't see why everyone is crying over Flash support on Apple products.

Given that the internet is moving towards web standard friendly web sites Flash support is not what it used to be back in the day. Granted it does have its uses but even then, HTML5 will pave the way for other solutions around the web.

Besides, Adobe shit the bed when they decided to make Windows their primary focus. When Apple needed Adobe the most to help OS X when it first came out, they turned their backs. Now that Apple has blow up over the past decade it's ADOBE that is missing out.

I hear about Adobe's products running like complete garbage on OS X from my fellow designers. But magically, on Windows I've never ran into a problem with any of their products. Adobe products are not designed to run natively on OS X. Plain and simple. It's one of the reasons why Apple has excluded them from the iPhone and iPad.

On another note. I'll probably buy one for my kids as a learning tool.

Flash is a massive resource hog on OSX. It drains batteries like mad.

When the iPad was announced everyone was talking about lack of Flash. Now with its release many major websites have added HTML5 support.

Of course, this makes perfect sense from a business point of view. If I run a major website and there are millions of customers out there (iPad owners) who can't view my site, I have two choices: stick with Flash and say screw you to iPad users, or update my site to allow iPad users to view my content.

Of course they're going to update their sites. Who would exclude such a large population of potential customers over something so simple as a site re-design (if your website is too difficult to re-design, then you had idiots build it for you in the first place).

I've gone to a vast number of sites on the iPad and I haven't noticed the lack of Flash. True, many of the video sites don't work. The full YouTube site works.
