Guys...if you take Ipad Wifi + Cellular model..you will have to suffer a lot in using 2G or 3G
because Ipad plans are different in India...it is expensive than normal rates( please confirm)...So better to take Wifi only model and thereby you can escape by paying for special Apple rates...
Other than that Ipad is best tablet available ( Ipad 4)...
If this is your first Apple product, think before you are ready to accept Apple's way
If this is your first tablet and not your first apple product ...

Guys this is actually the 3rd gen iPad. Apple introduced 4th gen iPad in a surprise move which is not so surprising if you understand the differences between both generations. As any company with multiple products carrying same proprietary connectors, Apple had to upgrade iPad 3 which carried Apple's previous 30-pin dock connector. And by the time it was going to get upgraded, A6X processor had already been developed. So they put it in 4th gen. So in nutshell there are only 4 differences betw...

pros
1. nice touch
2. enough space
3. smooth experience while reading a book
4. fabulous gaming control
5. good enough battery life

cons
1.cannot transfer data from a linux system by plugging in. one needs to do it via dropbox or icloud etc which is a bit problematic if u're not in a wi-fi zone.
2. no app available for locking mail etc unlike android devices

iPad 3 is super smooth and almost flawless. I have not experienced a single glitch so far.
I tried video calling using Google hangouts and it runs perfectly. Though the front camera is VGA, the picture quality is pretty good for video chatting with high frame rates.

The box contains two apple logo stickers which is good if you have a back cover that hides the apple logo. You can stick one of the stickers there! Nice thought!

If you have used Android then you would have been spoilt by the a...

This is an iPad-3, 16GB(of-course with flagship Retina Display) working on iOS-5 (definitely upgradable to iOS-6). It cost around 36K discount included.

Now, The iPad-4, 16GB (again with Retina Display) works on per-installed iOS6. Cost around 39K.

Both are Cellular - means you can insert 3G SIM card and use it without worrying about Wi-Fi (possibility of getting this in India is same as seeing a UFO)!

But the real difference comes in the "Chip" that makes them exceptionally faster than an...

FIRST THING I WUD LIKE TO TELL IS THAT I AM NOT A DIE HARD FAN OF APPLE PRODUCTS DUE TO THEIR HEAVY PRICE TAGS !!

THIS DEVICE HAS GOOD SPECIFICATIONS BUT IT SHOULDN'T COST MORE THAN 25K..

RECENTLY LAUNCHED GOOGLE NEXUS 10(AWESOMEST TABLET YET :D ) IS A STRONG CONTENDER TO THE IPAD..OR ANY OTHER TABLET PRESENT IN THE MARKET..MOREOVER IT IS AVAILABLE FOR JUST $399..WHICH IS 10K LESS THAN THE PRICE OF THE 3RD GEN IPAD..

HOPE FLIPKART BRINGS NEXUS 10 TO THEIR STORE SOON :)

This product is ultimatum.

I've used the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.0 before the iPad and it feels like I've upgraded to something much much better. The display is gorgeous and everything in the tablet is so, so user-friendly. Samsung's tablet now feels like nothing.. This feels so much better..
The touchscreen is way better, the performance is killing! Games feel awesome and I think this is just the righ tablet.. Apple apps like Find my iPhone and Remote are crazily amazing! I can control my iTun...

Its nearly 1 year to be over after getting iPad 3. What a product. First time I am using any Apple product and really you won't regret. till now it never hangs. Wi-Fi is very fast and its multi support gestures allow you to work on different application simultaneously. For gamers, its a cool gadget. You will never get hang issue. Yes there are limited free application in Apple, but don't worry all the common android applications, on searching you will get it free. So go for it.

I really enjoy the product. We cannot compare apple to oranges. I bought it for my son and he enjoys every bit of it. Worth the money and got it in a good deal.
It has retina display too, he doesn't play that high end games, and that high end games need a lot of memory.. It's just 16gb. I don't know how a charger pin is going to change the view of buying it, any charger is supposed to charge the device and a 30 pin connector also does it..well. I don't find any processor difference - A5, A6. ...

Pros
- Excellent Display
- Excellent Battery Life
- Good Camera
- Ease of Use
- etc etc... phew..there are a lot of good ones.. limiting to these

Cons
- Bit tough to manage apps using itunes. Apple can make the usability of itunes better
- Most of "The best" apps cost close to $5- $10. Can be a bit costly.

On a whole, a good product to have in hand, though Apple products are a bit on the expensive side, the usability counts for the price. Must buy!!

Thanks,
