Should I get the 16gb or the 32gb iPad?

I need to decide if I should get the 16GB or the 32GB iPad, I'm not sure if it's worth it to shell out another $100 for the extra space! Here's some info:
I only have about 1gb of music and pictures on it.
I will only have 1 movie or 2-3 episodes on it at one time, for travelling occasions only.
I plan on storing around 20 books on it, and eventually more.
I'm going to have a lot of apps. And I mean, a lot.
So, I'm mainly going to be using it for apps, books, and web surfing. Will 16GB be enough? (Also, do you think the white color will turn yellowish and fade over time, or stay white?)
Thank you,
Cate

It's a personal decision, but here's my thinking and why I decided to get the 16 GB WiFi:
I was on a budget. And for the extra $100, I bought the Smart Cover and two years of accidental damage protection from Square Trade. Protecting my iPad from the rigors of my studio and classroom and travel was more important to me than extra storage space to keep things I don't need to access.
I am consciously trying to work more and store work more in the cloud. I have MobileMe and DropBox for document and photo storage. (And FLICKR). I don't need or want to store a lot of photos on my iPad.
I have a laptop with an external hard drive with--I don't know, 300 GB or so?--of music and movies. I feed my iPod regularly. I don't need to carry around a ton of music. I just keep the stuff I'm currently listening to on my iPad.
Most of my audiobooks are accessible from Audible. My digital books are accessible from Amazon/Kindle. I don't need to carry around all of my audiobooks or digital books.
I knew that I wanted to play around with A TON of drawing and notebook and related creative apps.
So here I am with a lot of apps (the main component of my iPad's capacity), a couple of movies, a couple of TV episdoes, some music, some photos, a LOT of digital books (accessibility to Amazon notwithstanding) and I still have 8 GB free. So, for me I made the right choice.
Also, I figure that if and when I want a higher capacity iPad, there will be a lovely new version, and I can easily sell this one and upgrade.
(Also, do you think the white color will turn yellowish and fade over time, or stay white?)
The white will most definitely stay white. It's completely encased under the glass screen material, which goes all the way to the edges.

  • Should I get the new iPad in 32GB or 64GB?

    I am looking to purchase the new iPad with Wi-Fi + 4G, which will be my first iPad/tablet. Currently I have a 16GB iPhone 4.
    What I would be doing mostly is the reading of ebooks, syncing movies/TV shows and also my iTunes music library (which is about 20GB).
    I am also interested in getting games like Infinity Blade 2, among other things. I understand that the retina display will cause most app developers to bloat up their apps for better graphics.
    Would you suggest that I get the 32GB or the 64GB?

    If you have 20 gig of music and you also want to put films and TV shows on it then you will probably need the 64 gig version - HD films can be quite large (I have a 50 minute HD documentary that is 1.4 gig), so if you want to have a number of films/TV shows on the iPad at the same time as your 20 gig music library then you will need the extra capacity. Also the capacity can't be increased once you've bought it, so if you buy a smaller size you may find that you need to keep copying things off and onto it (and it's always better to have too much space then too little).
    eBooks tend to be relatively small (most of mine are less than 3 meg). Some games can be large (Infinity Blade 2 is listed as 940 meg in the store).

  • Should I get the 32GB or 64GB iPad mini?

    I have the iPad 2 16GB which I bought in 2011 and I don't have anymore space left on it. I want to buy a new iPad with more space for my games. I haven't yet downloaded movies or books because if the low space, but I really want to. I also watch a lot of tv shows online. I want to buy the iPad mini because of the one hand sized screen, but I don't know if the smaller screen is all the better than then the larger screen. Please help.

    hi, i bought an ipod 5th gen 16gb and want to get the 32 gb instead, if i break my ipod will my insurance allow me to get the 32gb with additional fee??

    Very doubtful, but if you have insurance, you would need to talk to them regarding replacement and any deductible you may have to pay.

  • Should I Get the Iphone 3g

    I have been looking at getting the Iphone 3g over the past couple of weeks. What I really want is an unbiased opinion. I know it may have some trouble with 3G. And I know it may have a few minor software gliches(which I am pretty sure Apple will fix).
    Also which should I get the 16gb or the 8gb version.
    Thanks

    A lot of "depends" type questions...
    personally, I say yes. Ultimately depends on how you wish to use the phone?
    3G: Call AT&T Customer Svc and have them verify the level of 3G network support in your local area, or your frequented business or otherwise travel locations are. Just because they show you being in "blue" 3G zone, doesn't mean your signal strength will be as strong as another "blue" area 4-miles away. My 3G signal vacillates from No Svc to two bars from minute to minute standing in the same spot. The more users on 3G network will slow your download speed.
    BATTERY: No complaints here based on my regulated use of 3G, PUSH; Locate Me; Wi-Fi usage; send and receive emails/SMS messages, GPS and internet access. First 24-hours I owned the field I spent a lot of time familiarizing myself with all the features and I ended up with 19-hours battery time. Since then I avg 24- 48 hours before recharging.
    My Personal usage: I use my 3G as a "tool", only using features as required. I work a lot from my home office; therefore, don't require PUSH for email/SMS since I have my laptop and local ISP for internet and email access. Being at home and when traveling in the local area I "know where I am for the most part" so GPS is not required. Having my business phone there, most of my calls are on it and not my iPhone unless I receive a call from a colleague or family member on my iPhone. I do leave my BlueTooth turned on at least 8-hours a day even in my home office. I turn PUSH on when I am expecting important emails from clients or colleagues when away from my home office which is at least 1-hr per day... when I am not expecting anything of importance and away from my office, I leave it on FETCH at 15-30 min intervals since there is nothing that important that can't wait and if it is, they can call me to get my attention. I use my camera on occasion (twice in two weeks I think... and have rare needs for video capabilities). Sending pix via SMS or txt can be convenient at times, but depends on the priority and urgency you put into sending this to someone who may not even have their wireless device turned on or close by? I also have not experienced the same concerns as others on this Discussion site.. but their user scenarios may significantly differ from mine. I don't use Micro Soft Exchange server, nor Mobile Me... since my syncs etc can wait until I get to my MacBook Pro and flip on iTunes. I purchased the 16Gig and glad I did. I do have around 200-tunes on it and maybe keep 2-3 movies on it. I listen to my iTunes a couple hours a day on average and talk time is 2.5 to 3.5 hr's a day. I was at the airport two days ago and jumped on their Wi-Fi to jump on the internet to track a colleagues flight coming in and checking news and had my 3G on PUSH for emails for a couple of hours and barely noticed a drain on my battery. Again, I use it as a tool for those features I need at the time and glad I had my 3G. A guy next to me had his BlackBerry open to the web and he glanced over to see the rich HTML download I had on Flight Aware and commented on how he wished he had the robustness of the 3G. On the flip side, the iPhone isn't perfect when it comes to Business usage on a regular basis. It meets my needs and if I want, I can use my company's MS Exchange server, etc... or even Mobile.Me... I just choose not to at this time. I did come over from Verizon Wireless... and I am not convinced AT&T's network (EDGE or 3G) is as reliable. I have had 4-dropped calls in area's I have never had issues with in 7-yr's with Verizon... but AT&T so far have been very good about credits. If this continues on a regular basis before my 30-days ends, I may have to consider returning to Verizon? 3G is still being rolled-out, so I am hoping its coverage and network tools improve to handle the additional user volume's. I don't care which phone you use on 3G, it will still have the same issues and burn battery life quickly if you choose to live on 3G... surf the net or use GPS to go to local grocery store, etc. It isn't a toy, its a tool to be used when you need it.

  • For the 2012 Macbook Pro 13" should I get the 2.5GHz Dual-core Intel Core i5 or the 2.9GHz Dual Core Intel Core i7?

    I am a high school student and I am getting my first Macbook Pro. I am not really sure which 13 inch Macbook Pro model I should get. My budget is kind of tight, but I think that I can afford any one of the models but I dont want to spend any money that I dont have to spend. Usually on a day to day basis, I use the web brower, watch movies that I have downloaded, and write a lot of papers. I also sometimes use Photoshop, and while I do not play a lot of games, I do want to have the option if I decide to later when I go to college. The larger hard drive size on the Core i7 model does not really matter to me because I dont plan using more than 500GB. I will be upgrading the ram to 8GB if I get the Core i5 model and it comes standard on the i7. Also, I need this computer to last me for 3-4 years so I want something that will still seem relatively fast a few years down the road. Lastly, while I would prefer getting the Macbook Pro due to its cheaper price and ability to upgrade the hard drive later, I also am considering the Macbook Air Core i7 model, mainly because of the faster ssd and the higher resolution screen. I dont really use the optical drive, so loosing it would not be a big deal. The same goes with the Firewire port or the Ethernet port. What would you guys suggest I get. A Macbook Pro or a Air and if the Pro, should I get the Core i5 or the i7?
    Thanks

    If you're planning on keeping it for long term.
    Go with the i7 2.9GHz.
    It's a $300 difference but with that you get; the RAM, Hard Drive and Processor upgrade.
    Since you want it to last before you decide to either upgrade or buy a new one.  The i7 2.9GHz is a good choice.
    Do remember that Mountain Lion is around the corner and other software get's updated to and wants more CPU power and more memory.
    Nothing is wrong with the i5 2.5GHz either.  You'll just have to upgrade the RAM sooner in case 4GB isn't enough for you.
    Put it this way:
    i5 2.5GHz has 3MB L3 Cache Memory
    i7 2.9GHz has 4MB L3 Cache Memory
    Now, you're also thinking about the MB Air, a very nice notebook which is light, portable and has a better resolution than the MB Pro 13 inch.  You have to however, keep in mnd that the RAM and Hard Drive in the MB Air is not user upgradeable and has no optical drive.

    In addition I'm sure you are aware that any PPC applications you have will not work and that many of your third party applications my need to be upgraded.

  • In platform transition: should I get the Mac or PC version?

    I am currently working off of a PC, but will be buying a Mac next year May or so.  So ultimately I want a Mac-compatible version of Adobe Creative Suite, but need to work with something on my PC for the next few months.  Should I get the PC version now, and then just continue using that version on the Mac via Bootcamp, Fusion, Parallels, etc.?  Or is there a way where I could get the PC version now and switch to a Mac-compatible version in May? 
    And is it even preferrable to have the Mac-based version over the PC-version when I do buy a Mac?
    I am planning on using the CS for front-end web development (wireframing in Illustrator / Photoshop) and some marketing collateral. 
    Any comments or suggestions would be great. 
    Thank you!

    The simplest way of accomplishing what you want to do is via a subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud which covers usage on both platforms. For example, download and install on your Windows system now. If you go with a Macintosh later on, simply download and install on the Macintosh. You get two activations and unless you decide to decommission the Windows system, you don't even need to deactivate on the Windows system. Obviously, if you discontinue use of the Windows system, you should deactivate on that system. The subscription also will get you the latest version of the software as it is released without subsequent upgrade costs.
