I got an ipad a couple of years ago as a gift, an all I've used it fo ha been surfing the Internet. I don't really know of any good apps, van anybody recommend anything?
What do you want to do on it?
A proper geek if there ever was one.I couldn't give my ipad 1 away so I took it apart.

The 256 MB RAM was the classic Apple early adopter gotcha. It was also one reason I didn't get the iPad 1. I decided to just wait for the iPad 2. We still use the iPad 2.iPad 1 is basically good enough to be a music/airplay audio streamer jukebox at this point. 256MB of ram was a critical failing.

Yep. I bought the iPhone 4. Its release basically told me that the iPad 2 was guaranteed to get twice the memory of the iPad 1.Yep. I had the iPad 1 and that was a huge limitation when web browsing. If you tried to open up more than two tabs, it would crash. The whole laugh is they released the iPhone 4 just a couple months later with double the memory.
I'm surprised. Mind you I assume it's not HD, right? HD works on the iPad 2 with Netflix now.I know Netflix still supports the original iPad, provided you have their old app. I was using mine to watch TV in my workshop.

HD makes a big difference on a 10" tablet. Still, for the OP, it'd be nice to be able to use the Netflix app, even just for SD. Can you still get that app?
The app store now includes older versions of apps for devices that cannot run newer versions of iOS. You should be able to install it from the app store like normal.The new Netflix app requires iOS 6 minimum, and the max OS the iPad 1 supports is 5.1.1. I'm sure the older app is still floating around out there. You'll probably need to jailbreak to install it.
