It was fiscal year end and I had some vacation days owing. Rather than pay me out I proposed my employer buy an iPad for me.

Worked out for me because if I took cash by the time I paid tax on it I'd barely have enough to get at 16G rig. This way I was able to get a 64G + 3G with enough cabbage left to buy a mag cover and wireless keyboard.

Good for my employer too because an outlay for equipment looks better on the balance sheet.

Well, you must be the smart one in the office. Good job. Sounds like you really came out ahead.

Got mine as a surprise anniversary gift from my hubby! Comes with a special engraved notes on the back of this iPad. Loving it! Was thinking of surprising him back for his birthday this month with an iPad2 3G Wifi.

A gift from my wonderful, generous boss for Christmas last year. I almost fainted when I opened the box! Best present ever and a complete surprise.
