• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

I thougtht it was starting at $499 like the original? Not sure how it would run RadarScope any different than iPad 1?
 
I see this as a decent tool for a business, but if you are like me, tight budgeted, the ROI is just not there. I would like to have one, but not pressed. Maybe before Hurricane Season. I did especially like that it's co-released for both AT&T and Verizon.
 
I'd love to make the swap up, but I can't give up my unlimited data package (especially with MLB starting up!)
 
I have a 32gb ipad 3g. Although increased horsepower would be nice I still have no issues with my ipad. I don't see enough for me personally to want to upgrade. The ONLY thing I wish I had an option for is verizon network or ATT. I don't think I will get enough to sell my ipad to buy the new ipad2. plus with all the hype I probably wont get my hands on one anyways for a while. I think it has improved and that's a plus, but for me personally for a camera and faster being my only specified interest.. I don't think I care to upgrade.
 
USB doesn't bother me... I connect my camera to my PC, and then drag the video into iTunes. Not much to it.
 
AT&T says the data plan can be transferred... That adds intrigue, as I'm a little tempted now.

I would take that with a grain of salt, and not be surprised when you find a $300 overage bill.. In almost all cases, grandfathered plans go away when you change equipment. Phone center CSRs will tell you pretty much anything to make a sale.
 
I agree with the article on the USB port. I don't get why Apple doesn't think that's important? The thing comes loaded with an awesome iMovie app but what's the point if I can't even connect my video camera to it?! Xoom or some other Android tablet it is...

They're saving that for the iPad4. See what I meant about holding back basic features to keep people buying them? :D It's the same as they did with the iphone. They could've very easily put a USB port and cameras in the first version. They could've very easily put a USB port in this version. But by holding back features, they ensure people will keep buying the new version.
