Greetings from Pennsylvania

Hello, Just joined this forum. Seems like this is a great place to learn more. I bought the first iPad pretty early on and found it to be tremendously useful for work. But it also became my constant companion for non-work, too. I'm not a gadget person, and for me to take to a piece of technology the way I did, says something about this product. But even though I loved it a lot, I knew that I was totally underutilizing it. And now, I'm sitting here with a fabulous brand new iPad from my employer. It's time to step up my game a little bit, and try to get a lot more out of this than I've done in the past. So I think this forum will be useful. Seems like a pretty collegial setting. Maybe I will some day be able to make a useful contribution. Thank you!
