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. |

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. (rumors of a 7" screen are surfacing, by the way) |

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. |

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.

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