Its possible... I'm not sure... but I MAY just do the unthinkable...

Okay, I've gotta share.. this is probably the sweetest thing I've figured out so far --

Using the wifi tethering app on my Droid, the iPad will tether to it so I essentially have an iPad 3G, without the extra price tag, without the extra monthly service charge and best of all, without AT*T!
 
Hey OP, just like anything else, you do what's good for you, no one else.

If that's what you wanted, craved, etc. No big deal to me.

Now of course, remember that your Droid can see everything you do, and may respond accordingly hehehe :)

Seriously, look at how many pre-ordered the thing without even looking/playing with it beforehand? Amazing that people have that much $$$ to throw around. (I'd say the same with the N1, how can someone just go by what they read, etc. for that kind of purchase?)

I play with my gear beforehand, did with the droid, not so much with my current laptop, because I knew the specs and the great price I was getting it for (plus, a PC is a PC, OS, etc. if you know the hardware, then you also have an idea of how it will run)

I say Enjoy your new toy!
 
Just had to post this video now that its finished processing.. wifi tethering to the iPad... one of the many reasons I love my Droid!

Totally awesome! Me so jealous.

Tethering coolness aside, I want the ipad to be my new e-reader. The kindle looks so old school next to the ipad's color, book-style reader. How heavy is that thing though. Can you see yourself holding it up for a couple of hours of reading in bed?
 
look into the smart qv7.....boots ubuntu...android ..and wince....and its only like 300 bucks...with a ton of stufff
 
It's only a waste if you don't get anything out of it. Personally I would have gone with an Android tablet, or even better, an Android Tablet that looks like an iPad (yeah I know I dislike Apple that much lol). As long as he's happy, then it's not a waste.
