Ipad OR Iphone, if you had to choose?

[spedrunner]

I was spoiled and had an ipad the past year (from work) I had to return it boo hoo

Im going thru withdrawl. I dont really want to spend the 600-700 for a new ipad since money is kinda tight

Is the iphone just as good as your ipad? DO you like it better

If you had to choose ONE which would it be?

*Also my cell carrier does not include iphone, so it would have to be a similar phone

iPad. My phone is fine for Internet surfing but I prefer the larger screen if im home.

See, this is the thing...

At home I like my iPad. bigger, easier to read. I had my iPad for a year before I got my iPhone.

Now that I have my iPhone and have it w/ me wherever I go - I LOVE it. I can surf the internet, play games, (my blackberry was horrible for both of these), email, text, etc when I'm out and about and (most importantly) waiting.

As we still have a laptop, though, at home, if I HAD to choose between the two - I'd probably choose my iPhone.

What did you use the Ipad for when you had it? I have both and I love them, but if I had to choose I'd stick with the Iphone.

I prefer my phone actually. When I am home, I'll grab the iPad for the larger screen, but the camera is better on my phone and I like the smaller size. Keep in mind that if you are trying to save money, the cost of the phone will equal the ipad after about 10 months since you have to keep a monthly data plan on it.

If you really want to save, get and iPod touch.

I will add that the device I find MOST useful is my laptop.

iPhone. But it sounds like you can't get an actual iPhone? So what would you get? They are not all equal.

I have a couple friends who have the EVO and LOVE it. Just an FYI. one works for Sprint and could have gotten the iPhone if he wanted, but he prefers the EVO.

And I would say the exact opposite LOL. I had an EVO (which is an Android phone) before I got my iphone and I hated it. I would never go back to an Android phone now.

It depends on what you really liked using the iPad for and what you intend to use it for.

I have both and love them but for different reasons.

My iPad I use to read books, keep track of finances, records, etc. I use the GoodReads pdf reader for crochet patterns and proposals.

My iPhone I use for calls, facebook, games, reading emails, and pictures when I don't care about the quality.

My mom uses her iPad as her gradebook for school, so I guess my vote would depend on your purposes.
