I might still be tempted back to white, though my iPad2 is black so I'd be co-ordinated if I didn't. Either way it'll be going in a capsule case like my 3GS did, so it won't matter anyway.

Going to be a big bump for me, though it's been six months since I lost the 3GS so my memory of that has been wiped by the overwhelming crapness that is the WinMo phone I've been using since (backed up by an equally old Blackberry that is also equally crap, and dying).

Picking up the iPad2 is comparitive sheer bliss, but it doesn't have 3G so it's a bit limited when out and about (it'll be tethered once the iPhone turns up).

But I'm expecting it to be smoother switching between apps, less likely to have to reload pages when switching around in Safari (due to the extra RAM), less checkerboarding in Safari (faster CPU), and so on.

Siri can go do one. Unless I get over my innate distaste for speaking to computers anyway (hate doing it down the phone too).

What, stare at a lot of lithe women in lycra and work up a sweat? Sounds manly to me!

Can anyone with an iPhone 4 recommend a decent slip-case? I want to keep it in a case when not in use but want to be able to easily remove it when I need to use it or stick it in the cradle in the car.

We all know he'll be getting punished later for that comment anyway, so all's good

Cases do more damage than good when it comes to the iPhone. Had mine in a bumper for 6 months and the metal around the edge has gone all scratched where bits of dirt have got between it and the case and rubbed

Screen is perfect after 15 months without any form of protection

The pain I'm already in is punishment enough!

Don't tell Marie. I've seen one too many smashed and scratched screens to go without protection!

Mine was only mutilated after Pheebs attacked it with a radiator

I don't keep mine in a case as it's too much of a faff to keep taking it out when I want to clip it into the hands free. It has a screen protector but that's it.
