That seemed odd to me that they would start from scratch with a totally new OS for the iPad. I guess they realized that using one of their BSD derivatives as a launch point was not a smart move.
I have one of the Asus Transformers, have had it about 3 weeks now. Love it and am very impressed. But it is odd to have a device that for almost all of my purposes is worthless without a data connection to the Internet. The Asus is WIFI only, but that means that there's no monthly data use fee, too. So, GPS as a feature is NOT standard operating feature for an iPad? Interesting. GPS seems like a no-brainer feature for a pad device. Mike > On 06/24/2011 01:15 PM, Allen wrote: >> I bought an ipad. don't know why, they are rubbish. Not they do not have >> GPS.
