I've been considering getting an Ipad this Christmas, partly because I'm tired of trying to find print copies of The New Yorker in the small town where I live and getting it on a tablet seems attractive.
This piece in today's Globe and Mail on the new Kindle Fire tablet is intriguing. For half the price of the Ipad, if I can get a bigger screen than my iphone to read ebooks AND get the New Yorker, hmmmmm.
Oh, and it supports Plants Vs Zombies! Bonus!
I am going to wait for the new iPad 3 coming out in the Spring of 2012 before I make my decision. This year I got the Kindle for Christmas. The best thing about it, if you want a book is that it's there in seconds. Looking up a reference is easy and when you are travelling it saves so much on space. No need to carry around a dozen books, the Kindle is just fine. Rather nice for deployments too.
