I connected my first generation Ipaf to back up the information because I am purchasing an iPad 3 and I want to set up my iPad 3 exactly as the iPad 1 is and not lose any information.

Sent from my IPAD 1st generation. WIFI only. 64GB

Actually, by definition, the iPad is still a computer, despite its compact size relative to the traditional PC setup. The fact that it uses touch screen input rather than a keyboard and mouse is irrelevant. Touch screen monitors for PCs have been around for years. And for those who hate using the onscreen keyboard you can get a traditional keyboard that plugs into the charging port.

If you need more storage, Seagate now makes a wireless hard drive that can be read by the iPad with the accompanying app which is free in the app store. So you're no longer limited to the arbitrary onboard storage limitations of 16, 32, or 64 GB. They come in two models, the Wireless Plus which is a 1 terabyte drive, or the GoFlex Satellite, which is 500 GB. Oddly, they are both the same price at $199.00.
