We brought the iPad 2 this christmas after everyone fighting over the last iPad. So, at first we was a bit unsure on the pricing having already one. But I'm very impressed.

good points - The facetime feature really set it apart from buying a different tablet really camera is good and it is so much better being able to see the person your talking to when your away.
Then you've also got the ease of browsing the web, a few tablets I've used take forever loading graphics on webpages but this is so fast!
With the big screen reading is good, everthing is clear. The screen is also very reponsive to touch which is nice.
I enjoy the apps what the app store has to offer, there i literally millions for millions of different uses from games to a spirit level.
Battery life is great, many hours of using apps and web surfing which is great I personally like to use it to watch films, and you could watch many.
Lightweight therefore it is easy to carry and more comfortable when holding it.

Bad points - The glare is really annoying, is your have a bad light or sun behind it reflects off the screen badly.
Even though there are cameras on it, I wouldn't use them for anything but facetime as holding an iPad to take a picture is harder than a phone or camera, also trying to find the little take picture button is annoying.
Expense not only do you buy the tablet but you then have to buy for expensive apps!
