Default Re: iPad help? What Size?

A device that can consume huge quantities of data that does not have cheap, expandable storage?

One that you cant just spend £20 and add another 36GB (unformatted) of files as you need it, cheap enough so that you can have a few of them and swap in whichever one you want the content that is on it to be available.

How quaint.

Dont even need to go to PC World if you are an iDiot - available from the App Store

Just because they sell you something doesnt mean you need it, just that they have money that you no longer have...

if you're in the market for a media player to watch stuff on your telly try this:
http://www.raspberrypi.org/
$25 for a unix machine - hook it up to a 9TB NAS array, run VLC or something similar and bob's your uncle...

Except it is not available (yet), and doesn't really fit the requirements.

C-, Must try harder

There's absolutely no point in wasting memory by putting hi-def films on an iPad, as it only has a standard definition (i.e. dvd resolution) screen.
