How much is the #iPad taking over my #iPhone usage?

This was something i predicted would probably happen when the iPad came out, but my iPhone has almost been relegated to an email and phone device. I still use it for things like Gowalla checkins, checking email, checking facebook when I’m out and about, but the iPad has really become the defacto device for me now to use for everything internet wise away from my regulars tablet laptop.

Why am i using the iPad so much? Well its quite simply a much richer experience with the larger screen and not having to squint at such a small screen like you have on the iPhone. The iPad is really my lounge device, or if I’m going over family or friends or know there will be a wifi access point that I can access, then I’ll take the iPad with me. For everything else, including out and about internet access outside of a wifi hotspot, the iPhone for me still rules. Unfortunately 3G although fast, for me is still way too slow for a larger 10″ display, and i think this is something that most people will find when they our chase an iPad 3G.
