I am swithering about buying the 3G for flexibility later on, although +£100 is a lot of money for "just in case" since I have an iPhone and can tether ( need to find out if Vodaphone charge for this ).
I too will go 64Gb ( unless the fabled 128Gb gets released ), I did read a report that Apple will drop the 32Gb order and go back to 16Gb but this sounds like nonsense on a tablet designed to support HD.
And I think black may win over white , suspect white case may show wear and tear more.”

Yeah, the WiFi only models do not have GPS. I've seen some stories saying that if a WiFi iPad is tethered to an iPhone, it will get GPS info from the iPhone... But I have also seen stories saying that is not true. If it doesn't work, then all you'd get on the WiFi iPad, whether tethered or not, would be location info based on WiFi access points.
Still, when I need accurate location info, I have the GPS on my iPhone...never wanted mapping on the iPad myself.
Dropping 32GB does sound ridiculous, given that the "iPad 3" will allegedly be capable of 1080p video. It may be that Apple will drop the 32GB iPad 2, and just keep the 16GB model as a cheaper entry level iPad?
