IPad is not always totally intuitive, but I like it so far. The bus I'll be taking to work has wifi.

For one awful moment I thought you'd been to an adult shop.
What do you mean "we", have you got a mouse in your pocket?

Finally
The more I think about it, the more I think I'll wait.

For me, I'm content to sit at my desk in front of my 27" monitor. Watching movies is great. If I need to sit on a couch, I'll use the Mrs.' laptop. I'm never away from a computer at work.

The iPad gives me e-books and ... what else besides what I have , other than nice portability?

As far as sheet music goes, it may be more economical just to get the air-turn package and a cheap netbook.

But, I'll probably spring for one when version 2 comes out.

It took me a month to figure out how to scroll within a frame. I finally googled it. Before then editing posts was a real pain.

I like mine a lot, but you have to accept what it is not good at. Namely, content creation.

I like having an instant-on portable web browser. The other stuff it can do is just gravy.


By the way, load the Epicurious app - its free. Weather Channel's app is pretty good too.

No problems with those things, but Mac is definitely more sophisticated.

Wow, our Apple store lately is like Mecca. People are jammed in there, walking in slow circles in full worship mode. It's hard for a person to move around in there and I feel like I should get immunized before entering.

You guys are starting to make me want one.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

If anybody walks in with about 20 iPod battery packs strapped to them, I'd get out fast.

I'm pretty happy with this thing. It's lightning fast on wifi, and the reader is much better than I ever thought it could be. Mikey likes it.

Naw, I think you'd be fine. Twenty iPhone batteries = about 3 running squirrels in round cagey things. Someone with twenty iPhone batteries on his back is probably just trying to run multiple apps for more than a few hours. :silly:

Regular squirrels in normal round cagey things or super radioactive mutant squirrels in superconducting cagey things?
