Post by: craigy123 on February 08, 2012, 06:42:27 pm
Just bit the bullet and got myself an iPad 2. So anyone got any recommendations on apps?

I couldn't live without Angry Birds HD  :signLOL:
Also if like me you like to watch movies when travelling on a plane etc. AVPlayerHD is a must.  You don't have to rip movies to mp4, it reads avi's no problem  :drool:
If you didn't already know it I'll tell you, at 100% battery I watched a 2½ hour movie on a flight and still had 87% battery left  :jumpmove:
It's the best device I've ever owned, and nothing can beat it for surfing the web  :evilgrin:

Ah, I gets you now. What's the implications with doing this other than the obvious?

Absolutely nothing.

You can always recover by putting in DFU mode and restoring in iTunes if it goes horribly wrong :happy2:

I capture a lot of short video clips using my Canon camera and they show up as 'video clip' file types in windows explorer. Are these supported by AVPlayerHD as I cannot tell from the blurb on app store.

Thanks

Just downloaded avplayerhd and can confirm it plays my video clip files. It really is a clever bit of kit. This was the only thing missing from a great device. My wife will be over the moon. Will break the news to her after the kids have gone to bed tonight  :evilgrin:

I am wrong in thinking that the ipad is just like using a laptop only less bulky.  My g/f offered to buy one for my birthday, but i said no as i was unsure. I do use my laptop every night, would i still use it if i had an ipad. Also the extra cost of one mmmmmhhhh
