Default Re: I won an iPad, and I'm pissed.

As a person who uses the iOS all the damn time, allow me to help a bit:

Use the VLC App. It's great and plays every format known to man, even on the iOS. There are DOZENS of alternative apps from the stock stuff they give you on the ipad. Google Books, VLC, notepad apps, you name it. Just look around and you'll easily replace the default stuff.

You can set which specific sync folder of pictures you want to go on your ipad. It's relatively easy to do.

Double tap the home button to access the multitask panel. You can switch between apps with ease.

Yes, I acknowledge the fact that the iOS still can't run flash, but after the 4.0 patch, everything is a hell of a lot stabler then it used to be.
