The issue that is all over online is the the operating temp of the iPad running hotter than previous generations.
I'm talking about the physical charger.

Funny Consumer reports noted that the new iPad can't charge under heavy loads.
Example they were running infinity blade II and the device was using more power than the 10w charger can provide...

But, that doesn't seem right. Maybe they had a defective product?

I wonder how hot people's iPads are getting? I mean mine only gets very very slightly warm after extensive web "browsing"
It has a long way to go to get as hot as my iPhone 4 gets/is right now... (just noticed how hot the back of my 4 is right now)

Is it warmer than the iPad 2 yes, is it too warm, not even close. I wouldn't really even call it warm.

Actually my iPhone 3G won't boot, I put bootlace on it so I can dual-boot android and iOS and when I was trying to update the mobile substrate from cydia iOS crashed twice during install and now if freezes when it boots, I'm gonna have to put it into DFU mode and do a restore.

amazon.com has up their offers for iPad2's. I just got offered $380.00 for a like new 32g Blk wifi. Packed up and ready to go. Of course it's a amazon.com gift card, but I already have it spent in my head. And I have to hope they give me top dollar, but the damn thing looks brand new.

Is it really necessary to have 3 clocks tell you the time???
That's one widget I turned off on android. Never understood why someone needs a clock widget when there is a clock already on the bottom right...
