Generic Apple hater comment.
went to apple store Sheffield to have a look at it was impressed with size and quality feel of it… was really nice to hold …
would sync in well with my iphone 4s and macbook air…
unlike others on here its not just about having the fastest cpu or biggest hard drive … integration is the key for me.
Just want to say; 3 million includes the iPad 4 model as well.
