Ordered one of those case's myself, excellent reviews so far and can't really complain at the price.

I had one for both my mini and iPad 4, they were both well made and fitted like a glove. Hopefully the manufacturer has kept to the same good quality with the Air case.

I'll update when it arrives (hopefully Wednesday or Thursday).
 
Hi guys. Anyone in London got one at any of their retail stores without any screen problems? I got mine at Regent St store and the screen had a yellow taint. Returned it at CG store but the other unit also has the same problem.

Did you manage to secure a perfect one? If so, where?

I'm thinking of popping by White City tomorrow and give it another shot.
 
Just walked into Regent Street today and picked up a 32 GB slate black iPad. No problem
 
Plenty for me. I don't watch movies or TV on my iPad.

Same here (but I do watch tv, iPlayer and SkyGo both stream so don't require storage ;)).

Even with about 40 big PDFs (mostly magazines) I still have around 7GB free.

I think you and I are the only two on this entire forum for whom 16gb is actually sufficient...

They had all types apart from the 128Gb in either colours.

Almost went for the 64 but thought that I'd hang on another few days..

Probably, I just don't see the rationale of loading 50+GB of music like some do, I don't use it for music, that's what the iPhone is for.

I agree - I've just gone from a 64Gb iPad 2 to a 32Gb iPad Air. I only use about 20Gb of data (magazines & newspapers, certain aviation apps with large databases) excluding photos. All my music & tv is streamed via Spotify and Netflix and I will not bother loading photos onto the iPad and stream them instead.
 
The only issue I have with these cases is they all look absolutely crap. As in aesthetically crap. I know the purpose is to protect, but surely it wouldn't hurt for someone to make a case that protects but looks amazing too?! :eek:

I'm probably gonna order one of those you guys are all getting too, but I would like a nice smart carry / protection case at some point. Will keep my eyes pealed in the coming weeks for any decent looking ones! :)

Also, my Air is apprently being delivered today (though I personally think it will be tomorrow), so I will try and get some pics / thoughts up later if it arrives for those interested! :D

EDIT: I didn't mean the cases posted by corahu above! I mean cases in general - my post was just at an unfortunate time just after he posted about the cases his company produce! :eek:
 
the only reason i got the 32gb is because im travelling a lot at the moment and wanted to stick a series on breaking bad and a few films on there for plane journeys. i also like to play fifa and real racing etc which are massive games. i do normally stream all my films but it was basically because of flights ad the £30 tesco discount i got the 32gb
 
My iPad was delivered! It's going to be a long college day! Cover still reporting for Thursday delivery. >:-(
 
I went from a 16gb iPad 2 to a 64gb iPad Air, mainly because I plan on having this for a few years so it was more a just in case thing. And I got a good discount which made it worth it
 
Mine is out for delivery but I'm at work and nobody is in the house but luckily the depot isn't far from me so I'll drive down there after work if I've missed it and it's going to be back at the depot before 8.
 
Belfast delivery here, tracking it on UK Mail's site shows:

05/11/2013 08:26 Out For Delivery
05/11/2013 12:43 Delayed
05/11/2013 12:43 72 - Line Haul Delay

Now showing for delivery tomorrow.

:(

Anyone else in NI seen this?
 
Torn!

I've just sent off my iPad 4 WiFi+Cellular model in 64GB to be traded in for cash and am unsure what to do next.

I do prefer the size of the iPad Mini over the Air but I don't know whether or not to stick to the WiFi only model or wait (patiently) and buy it with the mobile data capability.... :confused:
 
Just picked up a 64GB Cellular from the iStore in Crawley

Wanted a 128GB, but decided 64GB would be sufficient because of iTunes Match
 
What capacities did people get? Is 16gb sufficient for anyone anymore?

More than enough for me! I have a 16GB phone and iPad. I don't have a big music library and I delete anything I don't listen to. I only have apps I use which don't include many heavy games. I use up more space on my iPad usually because I have bigger apps on there. Any TV or films I watch I stream from LoveFilm or Netflix and use sevices like iPlayer for other stuff. In fact, my iPad is my personal TV in my room - I use the Catchup TV app. More than sufficient.
 
After my Tesco Direct fiasco I finally got my iPad air at my local PC World, they got 120+ on release day, now down to last 15.

For some reason when I looked on the curries website to reserve they de-listed the 16GB version, although it was still showing on the PC world site, and in stock. Strange even though they are the same company.
 
Mine has been out for delivery since 9am this morning but still nowhere to be seen. I'm off to work night shift at 5pm so I guarentee it will turn up after 5 :(
It's showing out for delivery on syncreon 360 tracking but how can I find out who the actual carrier is apart from calling apple?
To those to received them today, enjoy your new toy
