My Ideas/Rants

What overheating problem? Sure it runs a little hotter than the prior model, but running hotter is not the same as overheating - when things overheat, they stop working.

 

Consumer Reports:

Responding to consumer comments on the new device, and to coverage from other reviewers, we also carried out further tests that confirmed the new iPad is warmer in its hottest spots than the iPad 2. But we didn't find those temperatures to be cause for concern (see our post, The new iPad can get very warm, further tests show, but is still safe).

I've had a Nook Color for almost a year, and I like it a lot. It is fine right out of the box. Mine is actually rooted to use "Honeycomb" Android, which is even nicer.

 

I think if I were buying a new tablet today, I'd take a good hard look at the new Google model. I think that is a lot more powerful and is only a little more expensive.
