cont..... Top 10 Pro's & Con's for the iPad
Think I forgot about you? Nahhh. Just doing lots of research. Ok - by research I mean playing with my new friends (iPad and iPhone 4g).
So to pick up where I left off..........
Actually first let me recap!
The wife threatened me last week - "If you bring that thing to bed again......."
Thing? She called it a thing! Obviously she hasn't been playing with my thing. iPad people. Let's not get dirty here!
OK. Back to the list.
6. Well, breakfast is great now thanks to the WallStreet Journal app, NY Times, USA today and love the ABC spinning globe. My wife gets to see my beautiful face again but now I noticed hers is covered in black and white. Think we need another 'thing' in the family!
7. As it happens, the reason I have some time to finish this list is I threw my back out this morning. So here I lay flat out on the couch! Can't use the laptop but the iPad is just oh so perfect! So size does matter! Speaking of size. I hardly take out my Laptop on the Plane anymore. The iPad is just so much more convenient. And now that they have Internet on the planes, I truly get no sleep!
8. Organization: remember the days of brining a daily planner, a pad and pen to a meeting not to mention folders of all supporting papers? Not anymore! Now just the iPad. Funny thing is I never carry a pen anymore. Had to sign for something the other day and couldn't cut and paste my digital signature on the oh so passé piece of paper being waved in my face! Some apps I am finding indispensable for organization -
- GoodReader: Love the folders. Keeps my price sheets, catalogs, presentations etc all just a 'swipe' away!
- 2Do List: Integrates with outlook and iCal but still wondering WHY DOESN'T APPLE INTEGRATE a todo list??
- Drop Box: really great for keeping all my "files in progress" accessible EVERYWHERE. Remember when we used to complain about cloudy days! Now every day I am in the clouds! And loving it.
9. OK. Probably shouldn't mention this one but..... Can I BEE anymore efficient when in the..... bathroom? Email, newspapers, even watching a movie via Netflix.
Ok don't worry. Only one more left. Don't leave me now!
10. Save the best for last! i-Got-Control turns the iPad into the one remote I will never lose in the couch cushions!
