Re: [MacBook] Re: IPad vs. Kindle etc.

And let me add that the Kindle app for the iPhone, iPad will give you everything that the Kindle says it does but did not say the iPhones… could do.
Plus the extra 100 ppi resolution will make reading a dream on the iPad.
Notice with the Kendal you only get the 7.5 hrs battery when you turn off the WiFi but 10 on the iPad with WiFi turned on.
Yes, a little heaver for a nicer, larger display, 50% more battery time.
Twice the ram, You don't need stereo speakers when the unit is not wide enough to put each speaker on opposite sides of your head, You'll never hear it.
iPad does have stereo headphones.
