Apparently you need the additional ground clearance when smuggling black market kittens on the Caribbean backroads. :o

The additional height to the windows also keeps the cats safe from trolls. :rolleyes:

Wow. Those are all excellent questions!! :bigok: You've come to the right place for sure to get your answers. Ok, right to the point! No, unfortunately the ipad cannot watch videos like the ipod unless you get it RTF. The larger projected area of the ipad screen is really designed to be used for other tasks. In order to watch videos, you will also need the pulley handle accessory. Though, I would personally recommend getting the ipod first revision as it has a much slower play speed but is more stable and friendly to beginners. If you are just starting out then I would consider the 3.0 GB version. I don't think you need anything bigger for the speed of music and videos that are typically found in your area. Once you feel comfortable with the 3GB then you might consider picking up a 5GB or even a 8GB for those days when you just need a little more performance. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out!! :karate:
