    Using the same account means you don't have to pay twice for stuff, it's how me and the wife do it with our iPhones and iPad.

    People seem to have a common misconception that you will get stuff mixed up between devices but you don't you just set each device up with it's own sync settings and everything's ok.

    You could have two accounts and still share stuff, but it means signing in and out of the accounts every time you want to update and can become a bit of a faff really, never tried it this way as it just seemed like to much work.

    Good to hear from you. You’ll find a whole bunch of iPad enthusiasts in this Forum who are only too willing to help other iPad owners and to hear of their experiences. Don’t be afraid to post any questions you may have or use the ‘Search’ button near the top of the Forum web page. I usually find I discover one new interesting and useful piece of information about my iPad every day - and often not even what I was looking for!!

    Hope to hear from you soon with your thoughts about the iPad.

    Have fun and enjoy your iPad
