projected to change by August this year<\/a>. The Apple iOS is rock stable, and the tablet quite responsive on the overall. I’ve also been able to get it to work properly with my Galaxy S as a mobile Wifi spot – which has saved me a bundle of cash applying for a multisim card for 3G Internet access with Singtel.<\/p>\nThat said; my opinion of the Apple OS still has not changed.

I want to do any of those, I have to hit an app. And heck no Facebook games or any Flash content.<\/p>\nHannah on the iPad.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nOh well. I’ve picked up a bunch of children games and interactive apps for Hannah, including a couple of paid ones that’s come out of an Australian development studio.
