I want to buy my 2 boys iPads for xmas.. we don't usually spend that much money (they are 11 and 13 years old).. and we'll need to get them stocking stuffers and xbox live memberships and etc also..
I've done some reading, and it seems the ram in the ipads isn't that great for multitasking.. and I'm wondering if y'all think it would make better sense to wait until next xmas to get the iPad 2?
Would you get your boys little inexpensive laptops instead? Or go with the iPads as they exist right now?
Another thing that bugs me is that here in Canada, I can't see anywhere where I can get 'accidental damage' coverage.. and boys being boys... I'm thinking that might be worth the cost, IF it were available.
They have old PC desktops which they can use for 'real work' (school work, storage, etc).
I was going for the 'wow factor' with the iPads.. but I don't want to think that money will be wasted if a way better version 2 comes out.
Any advice for me?
Thanks
