iPad 2 will be Cell C friendly - supports UMTS 900MHz

[Russell Coleman Kraft SA]

Can anyone confirm that Cell C card gets decent speed in iPad 2? Who has tried it?

Yep it works perfectly. I bought 2G, and sure this is fast going to be too little for me soon. Sorry that is 2GB

Some sites say the xoom is the clear winner

Sorry but most people in the know are saying that the Xoom is far better than being locked into Apple.

Type iPad2 vs Xoom in your browser. Choice is obvious

They say first problem with Xoom "it feels like a brick compared to iPad2 yet it's screen is smaller" so I suppose typing is terrible if you have to share it with the pop up keyboard.

Actually the Xoom screen is slightly larger than the iPad2, and higher resolution.

And with my upgrade to Honeycomb 3.1 of this morning the USB hosting works - but not the flash slot.

Are you happy with your Xoom, where did you get it and how much?

Very happy with it, I ordered it from the USA, and the total cost for the 32GB wifi model was R5300.

I am so jealous, do you think it is better than the Ipad ?? Honestly

Yes, I do think that it is better than the iPad2, but YMMV.

The iPad2 is a nice device, but iTunes is a killer for me, as is the lack of USB and a flash card slot. However the Xoom software is slightly less stable (at present, this will change as Honeycomb matures).
