It's probably the SkyFire app. My understanding is that you'll sacrifice some battery life with running a Flash player, but if you need it, you can use the app.

you want to get yourself a few good travel accessories items

1-bag --i use a Cocoon Harlem sling bag
2-a good back cover like a Rigid Rubber Tpu outer cover unit to cover the back and give you a good grip on the unit when holding or if you have the ipad2 then try the Griffin website and look at there hard rubber case for the unit and go from there
3-headphone's for listening to music
4-power --i use a Incase combo model charger set up that can charge from a 12.volt cig lighter to a regular standard wall outlet
5-cleaning cloth for the unit screen i use a mirco one i picked up a best buy for cell phones screen
6-Application ..go to the website called App shopper .com and go through there website and pick out a few game's or other applications you might like on the unit ..

The sling bag i like because of beening able to put it infront of me when i travel on the subway and it holds the basic items i need for my daily travel ..

Thanks for the advice, and for the SkyFire info! I wanted to get an iPad 2 when they came out, but they were sold out everywhere. Then AT&T sold their original iPad stock for really cheap prices, so I decided to get one for myself, and one for my wife. I don't regret not waiting for the iPad 2 -- the first version is fine. For a case, I got an Otter Box at the AT&T store for half price. It's a bit heavy for casual use around the house, but I kept it to use for travel. I'll definitely get the other accessories.

Another app I recommend is AppAdvice. I think it's $2.99. Every day, it reviews new apps that are released. Every day, several app developers give away apps for free or put them on sale, and the deals usually are only good for one day. I've gotten many great apps that way.
