I have to agree with the other posts on this thread. I, too, have an iPad and love it, but it cannot replace my computer, at this point. That said, I only travel with the iPad now, rather than lugging my laptop along. For short trips, I find I can use the iPad for everything I need to do, like checking email, surfing the net, interacting with the stock market and even making phone calls, if I have a WiFi connection.
As previously stated, you really need to have a computer with iTunes installed to get the full effect of the iPad. You'll want to move some of your photos and music to the iPad and that is best accomplished via iTunes.
The iPad does alot of things really well and there are literally hundreds of thousands of apps, but for me, I still need a computer for certain things.
Good luck in your quest!
