    are u really that lazy that you cant figure out the conversion yourself? there are even web based sites that do all the work for you if your that dumb to not be able to figure it out your self sheesh. yes everyone knows there are people outside the united states but if the site is a US site why should they have to cater to you when they know most of their traffic is gonna be from the us?

    100°f is about 40°c that's enough to give you a basic idea

    Well it's not that I have a problem with the conversion but when I go to a site from say Europe they don't convert for me either I have to do myself. But they could all convert for us I suppose

    Not exactly convincing when the test is done by an Apple Fan site. And the issue is not about the tablets getting hot, it's about how hot they can get. If they played Infinity Blade 2 then the temperature would have been higher. Tablets are meant to be primarily handled with at least one hand on the tablets at all times so heat is definitely an important issue. With the debacle over the iPhone 4 (which I believe was an issue otherwise they would have not settled in the US or changed the design) I wouldn't be surprised if this is a serious issue.

    I am sure Apple knew the heat before launch and did not bother as they are in tolerable limits.

    Hmm, I don't think this will be a big problem, Apple will solve this.To the New iPad, the new screen is the killer feature. As I went to the Apple sale store tried the New iPad, I really like the the retina display and better camera. Im a iPad 1 user, and didn't upgrade to the iPad 2 just wait for the new iPad, would get my new iPad soon! Hope my apps are compatible to the new iPad, and get more surprise with the new iPad and Apple TV! BTW, for some cool iPad tips&Apps I found the iFunia iPad Column is very informative and useful.

    I agree, this test done by a Apple fat site is hardly convincing, just more fodder.

    You think thats bad. This site doesnt even provide a Cantonese translation for me. How utterly insensitive of them. I got buddy who tries to read this blog, but he only knows Farsi. What is he supposed to do? Google translate sucks. Damn snobs.
