Biggest annoyance with the iPad?

[speedlever]

For my purposes, that still kills ST. Many of the remote computers I maintain require a log-in to get past the welcome screen.

Ah well. I mostly use Logmein on my laptop or desktop and have recently begun to use PocketCloud. Honestly, I don't find the iPad as useful for working with a remote host as a PC, but in an emergency, I can make it work.

If only the battery would last 1000 hrs, then we could all live in a virtual world for a week at a time and won't need to worry about flash! Lol

The attention of members is drawn once again to this post:

Buying an iPad and complaining about flash support = a waste of time.

If you need flash support simply use another device.

Sums it up very well.

Trouble posting to some forums that don't have an app or tapatalk and trouble viewing some web pages for reasons that I know aren't flash related.

For me, it's the weight issue. One of the reasons I got it was to read more and my first week using it, my shoulder was pretty sore. Looking for a nice stand for it now.

My largest concern is, without a doubt, the fragility of the screen. Perhaps this is a superficial concern of mine own. Scratches seem to come from nowhere and without warrant. For this reason, screen protectors are a must. But then this brings the aspect of screen application into play! Perhaps a greater hassle and chance for visual imperfections to occur.
Other than my peeves cresting on my affection for my iPad, this is a terrific product with a bright future!
On a side note: Flash is a memory whore, as far as the iPad's limited RAM is concerned, and although I will miss that interactive online content I have grown so accustomed to, there is always room for dedicated applications to host that specialized content.

Scratches? Really?

We have about 20 iPads in the office and 4 times as many iPhones. Virtually none have screen protectors and in a recent review for just this reason we found no scratches on any screens... Some are original iPads - heavily used - some are iPhone 3GS

I take my own iPad everywhere and have used one heavily since the first units shipped and have never seen a scratch either.

Scratches, I agree!

No screen protector, no scratches here either.

Let's not turn this thread into a pointless argument about scratches on screens. If you wish to discuss such minor cosmetic issues, please start your own thread.

Back on topic, please...

I too would like either a USB or memory card slot. And a easy way to use something like Open Office on both PC and iPad and to move files back and forth.

Yes this is a pain. Need a better way to share files
