What are the questions that people ask you when they are considering
purchasing an iPad?

BEFORE
Do I really need 3G?                                                                                        If you want GP, then yes.
Do I really need 64G?                                                                                       That is up to you - cost/benefit is personal.
Should I get Verizon or AT&T?                                                                        My wife and I are Verizon customers, we bought Verizon.
Should I buy the Smart Cover?                                                                        It does not cover the back - just the front.        
How come it's more expensive than (insert brand)?
I already have a Smart Phone / iPod Touch. Why should I buy an iPad?    It has a bigger screen and you can have GPS without a cell                
                                                                                                                           phone account if you bought the 3G/GPS model.

Does the white get dirtier than the black?                                          I know that my wife's white MacBook does, buy black.

AFTER
Can I use my iPod/iPhone charger?                                                   No, the cable's fine but you need to use the included wall wart. 
Can I charge from my computer?                                                       No
My earphones don't seem to work.
What are ways to save battery use?
What do I use to clean the screen?
How do I transfer my ebooks?                                                             When syncing or Stanza's wifi method
The camera kit adaptor doesn't work.                                                 Mine does without a problem.
Is it dangerous to let the battery run down?                                        It shuts off before it's totally flat.
They said this thing could do multitasking.   
They said this thing could do folders.                                                   Press and hold an app icon until it's all jiggly. Drag one app icon         
                                                                                                                on top of another and label to suit. Press the Home button.
What's the difference between syncing and doing a backup?             Not much, if any
There are so many characters missing from the keyboard.                  Press the key at the lower left with the numbers on it. 
I did something and now all my apps are jiggly.                                  Press the Home button.
The iPad changes some of my words / how do I turn off AutoCorrect / the small x is difficult to tap
The iPad is stuck / is considerably slower. I did the red slider thing and it didn't help.
How come Apple put  no User Guide in my iPad box?                                 www.apple.com the SUPPORT and iPad
What are some good inexpensive, preferably free, books about the iPad.   Look in iBooks
If I do a Restore, will my apps lose data? I spent quite a lot of time customizing (insert app name). 

And that's 10 minutes off the top of my head.
