A Buyers Guide to the Ipad

So you’re thinking about buying an iPad but your not exactly sure what to look for, well here is a quick look at what your choices are:

Choosing the right iPad

There are six different  iPads  available. The Wi-Fi models with 16 gigs, 32 gigs and 64 gigs and the Wi-Fi +3G models with the same capacities. Price varies from $499 to $829. Somewhere in that price range is the perfect iPad for you.

What to Consider

How much capacity do you need?  If you love resource-hungry apps, you should probably get yourself the one with more memory.  If you typically download small apps, you would probably do fine with the one with basic specs. Single purpose utilities and solutions shouldn’t be a problem as these typically don’t use up a ton of memory. What you need to worry about are video and audio files. If you love loading your devices with lots of music and videos, consider a model that has a more memory. At the end of the day you still have to consider how much you are willing to dole out for a multifunctioning device. You will spend at least $699 on a 64 GB Wi-Fi iPad and at least $829 for a 64 GB Wi-Fi + 3G model. Another consideration is the fact that it takes A LOT of apps to use up all your iPad’s memory so unless you think you are going to be using a ton of apps that will use up a lot of your memory you’ll probably do fine with the lower end models.

What about 3G?

If you plan on using your iPad on the road a lot then it might not be a bad idea to get the 3G model, just be prepared to add about $130 to the price.  The great thing about iPad’s 3G support is that it doesn’t bind you to any long-term contracts. You can choose from AT&T’s offer of $14.99 for a maximum of 250MB data transfer per month which you can repurchase whenever you choose or $29.00 for unlimited data transfer, not a bad deal.  On top of this, you also get to access AT&T’s hotspots whenever you need them.

Still not sure which model you should choose? Follow this rule of thumb when buying a device like this, never buy more than your wallet can afford to lose!
