Hi folks,
I am still a *long* way form getting either one of these things, but am
curious if the pad offers phone type functions? I suppose I mean can an
i-pad serve as your phone as well, or would one require both devices
forgive me if this is a babe in the apple grove sort of question, but as
No.the iPad is like a tablet PC almost.you would need an iPhone if you
wanted all the phone functionsE.G. messaging, calling.
HTH,
Wes.

The Pad does not offer phone functions natively. You can add skype however.
It does offer cellular data for Internet access however.
Hope that helps

Hi Karen:
The iPad can be used to make ;hlne cals with a third-party app such as Skype.
But, a phone it is not. At present, the iPad also doesn't have a camera. You
would also probably want to employ a headset if you did use an ipad as a phone,
because it would be awfully awkward holding the
lol!
Thanks to you and all around.
Given I wold rather find some very long string and a couple of tin cups
than use skipe, sounds about the same, I will hold out for the phone.
Does explain how someone sent me an e-mail using his i-pad the other day
though.
