So I got an ipad

Post by B DIRT »

Wow :loveit: this thing is soooo fast it's unreal! The wifey picked it up for me Saturday morning and the apple store blew her mind. She was literally in and out of there, the sales person ran her credit card on their iPhone! It's kinda like a big iPhone but the screen is beautiful! It connects to iTunes and the wifey and I laid in bed and watched a movie on it last night. I can't put it down I love it!

I'm outside in the backyard under the stars, small fire in the pit, stogie, and writing this post on mine. :thumbup:
Web surfing, google mapping, email, music, movies, books, magazines, newspapers, work docs, and some of the apps are amazing. Haven't sat down to my computer all weekend. So easy to pick this up and take in anywhere within your wireless network, and it's instantly on when you turn it on. It won't replace the computer for work/production type of things but for everything else it just so much easier and more comfortable to use.
Pretty amazing device.

I wanna see pics of 1 mounted on your triple tree to be used for nav and other ride oriented purposes!

you might be on to something here - can a GPS be connected to one? It would be great on the sidecar for Bucho to read

I can do all of that on my iPhone, so other than the bigger, less portable screen, not sure there's anything to be gained from one of those for us.

Well if you are used to dealing with small things - it shouldn't be that big a deal to you...
