Apple, sliced up: iOS 5 irregularities in iPad and iPhone

A friend told me about the iOS 5 Reminders app's ability to set alerts based on your location, such as reminding you to pick up the kid when you leave the office, and I was puzzled. I hadn't seen that on my iPad, but sure enough it's mentioned on Apple's website. Not so clearly mentioned is that this feature runs only on the iPhone, even though both the iPhone and 3G-enabled iPad have location detection. This is not the only example of iOS capabilities that you get on some devices, but not all.
