Third of iPad owners want smaller slabs

7 vs 10 inch

guess this depends on what you want the tablet for, 7" is good for Corporate types that need to have teh latest tech to show off whilst answering e-mails whilst traveling, 10" is better for home usrs that want to stream movies and other media files and need teh screen real estate.

now if only somebody would create a tablet that has a removeable MP3 player that streams from theh main unit or has it's own memory you really could take all of your media with you.

Won't somebody think of the children as they will be the main users of any tablet after they ask to "borrow" the olds machine...

Re: thats my buying power minimised then

surely they do pay to play it too when they stump up increasing amounts for the downloadable content....

was thinking that if you pay full price for the game then yes you should have unrestricted access to the mulitplayer (and additional content??) but if you get the game 2nd hand you are given the choice for paying to access the multiplayer aspect or micro payments to avoid getting an old game being charged a tenner and then finding out the servers are going offline in a couple of months.. helps the devs with keeping their servers full more often, creates the revenue stream so they don't feel they are loseing out in 2nd hand sales and allows people like me to get a 2nd hand game finish teh single player and move on to the next game..

thats my buying power minimised then

I play all of my console games off line, don't want to pay M$ money every year just to play online and to be fair if any game comes out with a long single player game i usually get it new (ish). however i have noticed that most new games are leaning more heavily on short single player and masses of (recycled) multiplayer parts. so for the likes of me having to buy new for 1/2 a game gobbles.

Hate to say it but if they need more revenue to host servers, sure charge me a few quid for an multiplayer pass or even better charge me a few pennys for a monthly pass for said game that I can cancel when i get bored of it and allow me to buy 2nd hand games to play through the story mode, i will then tell folks how good it is, they will buy the game and probably the mulitplayer pass.

if we do just end up purchasing a licence for the software it makes on-live type services a shoe-in as it may be better to pay small sums each month and get full access to everything rather than full price for a game that may or may not have teh staying power
