Question about
Anyone else find it hard to go back to an iPhone after using an iPad for a while?
I just got an iPad 2 yesterday and after using it for a few hours, I picked up my iPhone 4 to respond to a text and was struck by how much it felt like a little toy! Everything felt so small and cramped on the screen!

Sort of. The retina display is just so sharp that it's a joy to use. But seriously, the A4 processor in the phone is starting to feel pretty pokey. Apps noticeably take longer to open, when installing or updating other apps, the entire interface slows to a crawl, and opening some settings panels takes a long time too.
Don't have any of these issues with my iPad 2! (It does make me wonder whether or not there is just a bunch of cruft that I need to clear out by restoring by phone.)

I agree regarding the size difference, but I really notice a huge difference in the screen quality when going from my iPhone 4 back to my iPad. The retina display is gorgeous and the iPad's display is just ho-hum.

I agree completely! I don't own an iPhone, but my iPod touch feels the same way! I have grown accustomed to calling it my iPad mini now lol

Nope! The high resolution screen on my iPhone 4 welcomes me back warmly.

Weird perhaps, but I love having both. There are times when one is just better suited for a particular task in the momrnt. It will be wonderful when iPad 3 has retina display (I hope). The difference of displays regardless of size, is noticeable.
