iOS 4.2 on iPad preview

In general everything works just about the same as the iPhone 4. Surprisingly (and perhaps due to the A4 purring along at 1GHz), it doesn't feel like the device is hurting due to RAM deficiencies or CPU strain. Flipping in and out of apps is generally smooth, though we did have one major crash when trying to forward a message in Mail. Just Mail crashed out, but it was extremely jarring. We also noticed some scrolling issues with moving from Spotlight search back to our icons on the homescreen. This is a beta, so we're not surprised to see a few hiccups. What's surprising is how few we're seeing overall.
