I love my iPad and I rather use it than a laptop. I have to thank Steve Jobs again for creating an amazing product that changed the tech world. It is so much easier to use than having a laptop on your lap and to carry from appointment to appointment. It is a larger version of the iPad with a crystal clear screen. I actually use the iPad to read instead of books. I study for my real estate exam using my iPad. I would highly recommend the iPad for everyone and for everything. I am looking forward to puchaing the iPad Mini soon!
