I'm leaving my job next week and I'll likely be given a tablet as a leaving present, as its pretty much the standard company policy (lucky me!).
While its a lovely gesture, my wife already has an iPad and, to be honest, I don't use it much. I have no desire for an Android device either. When I'm at home I use my MBPro13 for everything. I really can't see myself taking an iPad out of the house much.
If they give me one I'd probably return it. I need a new phone and the iPhone 5 would be a perfect, assuming all the rumours are true. Failing that, I'd get a Kindle as it would be nice to have something to read books that has better battery life.
So, I'm tempted to suggest they buy it from a certain place and include a receipt (they will completely understand). Any recommendations? Ideally from somewhere that I could go back to within 30 days and swap the iPad out for something else, no questions asked. My initial thought was John Lewis, but I don't think they sell phones.
Thanks
