Hi

[Tigerclaw]

Hi everyone, I received my lovely new iPad Air this morning. It arrived SO early, the driver must have been working all night long
After getting it all set up the way I want, and testing that it all works properly, I thought I'd start looking around on the App Store. That's where I found this App for the forum. Seems like a pretty good idea really, a dedicated App for something like this. So far I like what I see.

Okay, so a bit about me: My name is Tony and I'm 53 years old. One could say I'm an Apple addict. I have an iMac, iPhone5s and now an iPad air. I'll soon be owning Apple LOL

So give me a few days to have a look around, and then I can start asking questions if I need to. So far though, I'm very impressed with the iPad Air.

Hi!

Great intro Tony and welcome to the forum!

 

[Tigerclaw]

Thanks for kind words, much appreciated. And Hi to you both. I don't seem to be having any problems at the moment, so maybe there won't be many questions. I've been using a Mac and an iPhone for years, so it's all pretty familiar to me really, and not at all difficult. I thought there might be many differences, but there aren't. I'll continue to look around to see what people are up to, and what everyone uses their iPads for. Haven't decided what I will use mine for yet, I just knew I wanted one Anyways, nice to be here, and thanks again.

Thank you leelai.
I've been looking around, and so far haven't had any problems finding anything I need. I'm already using the app, so no worries there

I haven't read the rules yet, but then I doubt I'd fall foul of any just reading anyway. I don't think I'll be starting threads anyway, and I'd rarely post much either. Can't offend anyone then can I LOL.

Thanks for the welcome, appreciated.

You're very welcome!

Well it's good to hear you're not having any problems at least!

Lol....no, you won't fall foul by just reading but there's lots of other threads (off topic) where you can join in, if you're so inclined!

Good to have you here regardless!!
