I am not a big Apple fan.
I got my iPad through school and exploring it in the last 10 days.
I like many features and hope to explore more.
Only negative I find is it is more heavier than I thought.

Cheers!

I thought I already did this, but I keep getting the email to introduce myself so I will try again. My husband won the iPad in a golf tournament and he gave it to me--I love it. It is always with me. We went to Maine last weekend and there was Wifi but no TV, the iPad was awesome.

Hey All. New to the forum but not to Mac products. Started out with a 12" Powerbook then upgraded to the Unibody MacBook Pro (15") and the 27" iMac for home. Numerous iPods and a couple of iPhones as well as Apple TV. Recently purchased two iPads, one for the wife and one for me. Awesome toy, I find it much easier to use when travelling through multiple airports than dragging out the MacBook to check my e-mail on the road.

Hello from Yukon, Oklahoma! Been an Apple addict for about 20 years. Have several "retired" Macs, currently use a Mac Mini for my desktop, a Dell laptop (sorry, but had an Apple laptop, but hubby took it on the road), several iPods & an iPhone (for daughter, spoiled brat!). And now got my iPad just this week, 16Gb, WiFi + 3G. Love it, love it! Just a beginner, but getting good help from daughter, since she's experienced with iPhone.
#1 question: how do I use the bluetooth? i.e. I went to Settings/General/Bluetooth, turned it on, it starts searching (says "now discoverable") but just searches, never finding my Mac mini, which I have set up & always is found by my phone. Any clues?
#2 question: I found this forum when searching for info on playing Pogo games on iPad, which I gather from reading there, is not gonna happen? Also, my phone (a Pantech, if that matters) will see my iPad, but I can't pair it, coz I don't have a pw set for the iPad.
Interests - Country music, computer games, Facebook, TV
Apps (so far) - iBooks, several keyboard apps, Facebook, Flixter, Zinio, ABC Player, GT Racer, Glee (only paid for app so far), Tips for iPad, Pandora, Shazam, CMT Insider, VLC, a few cheesy games.
Will be looking for a few good games, but I'm mostly into cards & some board games, not too great at action/adventure games.
Am seriously considering the Pages app, but I have Adobe Suite on my Mini, so may not spend the $$ right now.
OK, if you've made it this far & I haven't bored you to death, then you probably have things to tell me, teach me ... I'm an open book!
TIA!

Hello everyone.

I am not a big Apple fan and this is my second Apple product as I currently own a Nano Ipod (last generation). In fact, my laptops and desktop are Win 7 and my smartphone is a Droid (rooted).
I received my 16 GB wifi/3g Ipad only yesterday and have only spent 1-2 hours with it.
My first impression is that it is an overpriced, larger IPhone or Smartphone.
I do find it heavier than first perceived but it is definitely lighter than a netbook or notebook.
I am having problems with intermittent wifi and its settings. It seems many reboots fixes some issues and am surprised by that (I thought Apple products always "worked" right out of the box?).
At&t's network is slow for the most part (I have Verizon on Android and it is blazing fast and stable).
Nevertheless, I will continue to explore and keep an open mind and look forward to learning while contributing when I can.
Cheers!
