^BM, use the ipad inventory tracker I posted a few pages back. It's VERY helpful... No joke.

Shay, both devices has to be on the same network. Homesharing won't work over 3G.

I have a 16gig and I've only used about 9gigs.

I probably won't use more than that. There are a lot of apps collecting dust on there. I don't have any music because I stream from Pandora or from my pc with homesharing (the same applies for videos as well). I bought the 64gig iPad 1 and never surpassed 7gigs.

64gig is way too much, 32 is enough for a power user. 16gig is great for web, email, Facebook, playing games.

The need for space isn't as important on iPad as it is on a pc. iPad changes your consumption habits.

I have a 64g (first gen) and I know I'll never use all of that space unless I load tons of movies on.  I was originally gonna get a 32g for 325 but dude acted weird and raised it to 425 so I figured I'd buy a 64g from someone for 475, but if he isn't putting a ton of music/movies then 16g will be enough

someone with more knowledge make an official iPad thread. apps, tricks, themes, etc. need to be discussed. I can't find one.

I downloaded the DirecTV app last night. I was under the impression that you could watch actual tv programming on your ipad but that's not what this app does. It allows you to set up your favorite channels and gives you up to the minute sports updates while also allowing you to use your ipad as a remote. Not bad for a free app.

Here's a trick to listen to YouTube music with your screen off. Start the video, press the sleep button, double tap the home button and then press play. Uses a lot less battery life

Add furiousstylezz.First time owner of an iPad. A guide like hankmoody asked would be cool.

Can anyone suggest a good stylus + Note taking app for academic studies? I'm in the market for one.
