I just got an iPad
Showed up earlier than I was expecting.
Really fast ... Nice screen brightness. ...a bit tough to hold for long periods. edit: It won't load a backdrop . . .why won't it load my R-Gruppe backdrop?

 it pissed off someone (who didn't see who posted --note the one-star rating.the R-Gruppe touch was just for an extra degree of unbelievability.

My wife was talking to her mother this morning and she (90 Y.O. MIL) mentioned that she would like one. She drives me crazy just trying to find things with her HP laptop. It would be funny if it wasn't so frustrating. Have you ever tried explaining to someone how to do something when you are on the phone, she's 1500 miles away, and her email screen disappears.
Holy Shlt, I'm in trouble now if she gets one. |

Windows 7 is excellent. Running it on my 27" iMac at work. Fast as hell.
How is that for balance? |
