An iPad review in 140 chars or less?

by Chris on May 6, 2010

Twitter’s a great thing, isn’t it? It was through Twitter that I got my first car to review, and I’ve made some brilliant contacts (and friends) there. Well today Barry Snedden, one of the DJs at our local radio station, tweeted that he’d just had a go of an iPad. I replied telling him I was jealous, and tried to blag a review from him.

Here’s his reply:

@cdhinton In 140 or less? I took to it like the proverbial duck! It was a little smaller (but heavier) than I thought it would be! Amazing!Thu May 06 20:44:59 via TweetDeck

OK, so I admit this might be an excuse to try out embedding a tweet, but I also want to take the opportunity to ask anyone else who might have had a go of the iPad, “What do you think of it?”

I haven’t tried one yet, and I’ve read many mixed reviews but I think my mind is made up: I want one :)

I am also on Twitter at, as you might have guessed from Barry’s tweet, @cdhinton – feel free to follow me and drop me a line to say hello!

Cheers James – are you trying for an even shorter review than Barry's? :)
