My iPad, My computer

07.08.10


Anyone who knows my husband and I could probably tell you that we are very big Apple fans and almost always have the latest and greatest Apple product. We were a little late to the iPod game but have owned just about every type since the first Nano (which I affectionately named Slim). My husband has owned each generation of iPhone and typically got them on release day with the exception of the latest 4.0 release. We followed a similar trend with iMacs and MacBooks so of course the iPad was a must have.

My husband purchased (on release day once again) a Wifi only 32G iPad and the wonderful black Apple case. I pestered him so much to borrow it that I had my own just a week later. My iPad, Titan, has replaced my need and desire for a typical laptop. The transition from MacBook to iPad has been just flawless. It was made easier with a Mobile Me account and familiarity with iOS. There were a few laptop features that I needed to find app replacements for such as keycahin and documents. I now use mSecure for all my password needs and a mixture of iDisk and Pages for iPad for my documents. I now rely heavily on “the cloud” for access to photos, documents, and links; but I do still have access to a desktop for iTunes and iPhoto syncing. However the latter is less and less necessary with my new camera connection kit. Now I just need to figure out how to get those photos online. I’m sure I will rely on email more and more as a great solution to many problems.

I still have my white MacBook, but it is waiting for some new owner so it can say “Welcome.”
