Ok.... Two months into using the ipad and I only have one regret... That I was too cheap to get the 3G model! I find that I now use the iPad more than I use my MacBook. On another thread, here on TOTV, I have discovered several useful apps for the iPad; recommended by other users.

Recently, my company implemented email integration with the iPad, so they are now "pushing" email to the iPad. Therefore, it now functions pretty much like a Blackberry and I receive company email and personal email on the same device. Thank goodness I can turn off the company email.

I have also been using the iBook app for reading. Since I've not used a Kindle or Nook, I can't compare the experience with using eInk. However, I find that I can read for several hours without a problem.

Typing takes getting used to..with the touch pad, but I find it easy now.

How are others fairings with the iPad ?
