How does Web surfing on the iPad compare with the iPhone?
The Web surfing experience is similar to the iPhone’s; they use the same browser software. But the big screen on the iPad makes Web surfing a more satisfying experience. You don’t have to constantly zoom in on text or scroll around the page to find what you want to read. But like the browser on the iPhone, the iPad’s doesn’t support tabs. So if you want to open additional Web pages, you have to do so in new browser windows. That can slow things down if you want to switch back and forth among multiple pages because you can’t simply click on their tabs.
