The iPad has so many issues, it's the least liked iPad ever!!!

I'm not sure if he is trying to prove anything other than to poke fun at the guys loudly proclaiming the device is defective and if you can't see that you don't know what you are looking for because they have replaced their devices x times.
............... id take the surveys results of a few hundered people, vs a handfull of people on ifabboy websites starting threads.
i just dont see what the big deal is, all ipads have all the features apple stated it would. if there is any manufacturing deffects, screens, dead pixels. apple is more than happy to replace it.
if someone has a problem with the device not being up to par on their standars, then maybe they should have gotten a differnt tablet or take advantage of the gracious 14 day return.
I dont think you know the majority of ipad users so I would refrain from statements like that, as they simply incense those that do have issues.
Is the IP3 better than previous version. In most respects yes but it still has issues and Apple does very little to address them other than take returns and keep quiet.
My issues:
1. All iPads are still too damn heavy
2. iOS is still not tweakable to a level that many would find helpful. For example, I would love the option to shut off LTE without having to open settings.
3. The warmth is annoying. Its not burning hot, but its annoying and should not be there with Apple's level of engineering.
4. Retina quality apps still not there and we have Apple's super secret release approach to that for the added wait time.
5. There is nothing in iOS (other than on/off) to help manage LTE better so users are more aware of how fast data is consumed.
I hate the "retina" moniker. Retina assumes that pixels aren't discernible at a certain distance. I have really good eyes, so I can still see pixels. The screen is excellent, though
just drop the marketing word.
The added weight is completely noticeable, but if you use a Smart Cover most of the time, it won't bother you.
It's about 15% dimmer at full brightness, which will affect your use outdoors.

I've used mine quite extensively in full sunlight and it was just as legible as the original iPad in full sunlight. Not a real issue at all. In fact, in normal use I find full brightness to be too much. I run mine at 50 percent or less 90 percent of the time.
You adapted to it, like everyone else will. Just stating facts, sir. The extra weight is not bad, "once you get used to it".
in due time, more retina apps + jailbreak and you'll be happy
as to helping manage your lte? maybe try loging into your account and seeing your totall data usage?
Which word is profanity again? The forum will *** out what it believes to be profane. But I don't think "bitching" or "crap" is offensive...then again I'm not easily offended. And if I do find something offensive, I change the channel, turn down the volume, or close the browser window.
That's all good for you, Salty the Sailor. But unfortunately you aren't the only one in this room. Not sure which word is offensive? Use some of those words with your boss tomorrow and tell him your extreme puzzlement over this. I bet they'll help you figure it out.
I went from iPad 1 to iPad 3, the difference is day and night, if you aren't happy with# 3 go buy a Samsung and quit bitchin!
I work in television...you think what I said here is bad? I've heard my boss say worse things during a live shot than you'd hear during a joke that ends in "the Aristocrats!"
I'm sorry you're offended by language that the bot doesn't deem "profanity", but look on the bright side, you won't wake up with some incurable disease.
But let's stay on topic.
I guess it's not okay to use profanity, but it's okay for you to be a self-righteous ****.
The board auto-sencors what it deems offensive.I did it once, for your kind info,retailers in NL admitted that iPad might have some issues especially the screen- most buyers are changing and even compare their own with demo ipad2 - requests for another ipad3. I dont know how iFans are seeing this but definitely there are some quality issues with the screen. If you are not daring to accept it who cares??? People have right to complain if Apple dont meet Apple's quality!!!
Some people's definition of "Apple Quality" is reasonable, some are at levels the gods themselves couldn't meet.
Some people are never happy. It's simply human nature.
No surprises here, many take great delight in finding fault.
Me? Mine's just fine, thank you
