But we know at least a few of you will have your hands on an iPad and we want to hear your first impressions.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some things we want to know about:<\/p>\n<p>1. How was it setting up your iPad? <br \/>\n2. Did you have any issues connecting to your WiFi network?<br \/>\n3. How does the interface compare to an iPhone?<br \/>\n4. Do you see yourself using this as an e-reader?<br \/>\n5. Is the iPad&#8217;s construction suitably durable?<br \/>\n6. How does it handle a 6-foot drop onto a hard surface (PLEASE DON&#8217;T TRY DROPPING IT, but if it does happen to occur by accident, please let us know the results)<br \/>\n7. How do you prefer to hold it when using?<br \/>\n8. Is it absorbent yet discreet? (again, we don&#8217;t want to you spill anything on your iPad!)<br \/>\n9. How was the quality of streaming video?<br \/>\n10. Now that you&#8217;ve got your hands on it, what do you see as its main use going forward?<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to answer these questions in the comments. <br \/>\nIf you&#8217;ve done a video review, feel free to send us the link for consideration at <a href=\"mailto:tips@consumerist.com\">tips@consumerist.com<\/a><br \/>\nAnd please upload any photos to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/groups\/consumerist\" >Consumerist Flickr pool<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We didn&#8217;t pre-order an iPad and we probably won&#8217;t be hitting up the Apple store or Best Buy to get one this weekend.
