This device is one that has been hotly intacipated by myself and literally millions of other. My device specifically is flawless (besides the laser-engraved typo). The screen is amazing and a pleasure to ready, my only problem is I CAN see the pixels and every now and agian I am reminded of thier existance. Nevertheless, the screen is the best you can find on any tablet today (and 100 times better then my former Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE). The only thing that I find not holding up to my standards is the battery life. On my orginial iPad it felt like the battery lasted much longer then that of the new iPad, but it will still make it through a good day or two with moderate to heavy use. I use the iPad on AT&T and live in an HSPA+ zone (AT&T likes to remind me with the constant '4G' icon). I have yet to speed test it, but, the rates I am getting seen pretty snappy for web browsing and watching Hulu Plus. All-in-all I think this is a great device and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a tablet.
