IYO of course...  :)

Neither of mine are cramped at all, plenty of space to do what I want.

I've read those reports too, and while I don't doubt the numbers, I've 
never figgered out why anyone would want 100 apps on their iOS devices. 
 I've got maybe 25 on each and really only use about 1/2 that on a 
recurring basis.  And that's been true since the 1st gen iPad I bought 
the 1st week they came out.

And I use both every day.  Of course, on the iPhone my use is pretty 
simplistic as the screen is too small for me to do much unless I break 
out the reading glasses.  But if I'm at a place that is convenient, I'm 
probably using the iPad.
