Apparently, you can also make phone calls with it, if you have this accessory.
Well, they are not real phone calls, of course. But rather phone calls emulated by digitally encoding and transmitting voice over a GSM radio link. Or alternatively over the Internet.
But still, it does allow you to pretend your iPad is a telephone. How cool is that?
Funny though how much sound quality on VoIP varies. For example it's reported that Line2 calls are virtually hifi quality, and that Skype usually sucks (on phones).
I haven't used Skype much, but I tried it a couple of times calling to normal phones, and that truly sucked.

Ah, another good use for it: the iPaddle, for paddling naughty children.
Yes, I knew sooner or later some would get tired of it.
