    There isn't a standard price, Apple were the first ones to bring out a modern tablet.

    What it's for is web-browsing and stuff when you don't need a full keyboard and want something that won't go flat after 2 hours like a laptop.

      Eh? Define "modern".

          Its a big iPhone without the phone

          Useful if you're a photographer or webdesigner and want to show photos or websites to clients, but just an overpriced toy for anyone else
          Doing the needful since 1827

            Any normal photographer or webdesigner would be happy with a laptop, so I assume the iPad is reserved for photographers or webdesigners of the Dandy variety.

            To illustrate this I have included images below.

              iPad's are also finding favour with DJ's, as they are portable enough to carry around easily in a man bag, and can run various DJ apps for when they do a set.

              If Apple can make a 300w speaker set that folds up in to a Kinder Egg, then they might have something on their hands,
              Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                    It also highlights the state of that model's fingernails as well.

                      Was Nathan Barley underrated or what?

                      Actually, probably wasn't. Tho Chris Morris's Jam was, this is my favourite - stupid people, reminds me of a few on here...

                      Yes, I know what a parking meters are!!
