Hang on a minute, the very first post of this topic, Emerald is Rank 15, not 1!

Gotta say though, Emerald has finally move with the times and used a REAL web browser, as opposed to a fake one like Internet Explorer.

Sadly... seems Knit is still using a fake browser! Just a newer fake browser!

Not on XBOX cause XBOX can't cope with the amazingness!

I'm beta testing right now me
Only just got it updated to latest beta though, and the beta testing schedule cancelled until Monday while they do some major network maintenance or something.
So I'll let you know Monday if I'm pleased or not with the appearance of it so far even though I'm not supposed to because I agreed not to teehee

Because we've started using the iPhone for a lot more than apple ever intended. So for some things on the iPhone such as email and web browsing and even game, we are limited to a small screen and end up draining our battery. I didn't mean replace completely, just for those usages and when in the flat lol.

Now you could argue that you'd use a laptop for that, but really you cant sit on the sofa on your laptop - you need a desk. A laptop is more a computer you can move between places not really a device you can use on the go - and to be honest id always used my iPhone for it instead because i couldn't be arced setting the laptop up or going into my bedroom to the computer - I wanted to stay in the living room. I can use ipad in the car and on the sofa etc so it does offer more portability than a laptop albeit less features... But given time I bet there'll be an app for everything lol. One big feature of the iPad too though is it doubles as a book reader. So when you say the iPad has less features than an iPhone - it doesn't really. It has its own features of things the iPhone can't do - such as watch films with friends on the train or plane and it does offer better game quality.

I will say one thing though - so far the app store is a bit sparse but seems to be picking up with more and more good stuff though - seems a lot of developers been a bit behind lol. But so far the raw features of it sufficed for me :-)

As for putting more ports on it - that is a fair argument and i do agree - I'd have been in immediate love if it had an Ethernet port!! Or even simply an adapter that you plug into the connector that turns it into an Ethernet port - that would've been frikkin amazing lol!!

But yeh you need to get ur hands on one and try it out I love them :-) but I would only say buy one if you're a big web and mail user like me. I suppose if you're not you wouldn't have as much use for it lol and it would a bit too much price tag for something you might use once a week. But if your on email and youtube and other sites daily then yeh it's brill!!

Loving remote desktop from the ipad too!! Heehee !!

Hehe yeh I was disappointed by it though - the new levels they have aren't on the iPad HD version!! b***ards lol. Hopefully they'll add them soon :-)

Pinball is awesome though!! Might buy PAC man next week too haha!!

IPB 3.1 officially installed :-)

So if you've got an iPhone you can officially use the IPB application with the site now lol. Just search the app store for IPB.

Posting this using the app on my iPad lmao. It's such a pitty though that there isn't an iPad version yet... Then again with the ipad browse I guess you dont need one!

Facebook connect is setup too! Just to piss off Knitler

My iPhone had already replaced what I used for email and browsing lol.
The iPad jus replaced that now lol.

Still got laptop for work and my computer for study lol.

Unnecessary is a poor excuse :-P
Phones, TVs and computers are unnecessary but we have them :-)
Tablet computers just slot between laptop and computer. Depends exactly what you do day to day though i guess (and how much money you have too probably lmao.)
Like right now I'm posting this from the pad cause i cant be arsed booting the pc just to do it lmao.

Time to check mail and play pinball before bed
