Russell, the speaker is definitely better to my ear. Any audio, including VO,
sounds crisper coming out of the iPad than it does on the iPhone.
I do find that the iPad won't do much new that the iPhone already can't (though
there are certain apps that work better, like Zyte), but I prefer Mail on it,
and web browsing is really cool. With the bigger screen, you can get a much
better sense of how a page is laid out.
It also has a really nice feel to it. Not that the iPhone is unattractive, but
there's just something more impressive about the iPad. The thinness and the
aluminium, probably.
Navigating it did take a bit of getting used to. Even now, the flicking
gestures don't seem to work quite as predictably as they do on the iPhone. It
seems like it has to be a much more deliberate movement, or it gets registered
as if you're just touching the screen. But I've only had it for a short time,
and I'm sure that's just about getting familiar with the device.
