Hello from Canada.
I received an iPad for Christmas and for my 83th birthday.
So far, I've been playing Bookworm and I wonder if anyone else likes this game.

Canada says hello back. Don't play Bookworm but I am one. Love the iBook book reader. My eyesight is poor and e-reading is the only way
for me now.
Welcome to the forum.

Stock iPads cannot be used as a hotspot. I don't know if jailbreaking will help.

Hi, everyone. I'm a long-time PC IT consultant/developer/admin guy who's getting into Macs. I dumped my Blackberry and picked up an iPhone 4S a few months ago and got an iMac so I could teach myself how to do iOS5 programming for the iPhone and iPad. And two weeks ago I picked up an iPad 2 32GB with Verizon 3G. I'm really loving it!

Hi everyone, af847 here. I'm looking to pickup an IPad 2 soon. I'm coming from a PC background and an Android Phone, so not too informed on Apple products. I've been hearing so much lately about how Apple products just work and don't have problems like Android and PC's. I've been interested in getting a tablet and I like my phone, but too small for me to use without glasses. Most of the android tablets, really didn't measure up to the feel of the IPad 2. A friend showed me her Ipad 2 and I was really impressed with the size and feel of it. She let me know what it can do and answered some of my questions. Went to an apple store today and the sales person helped me understand a lot and answered my questions too. So I'm hoping to be an IPad 2 owner soon, just waiting to see how much the IPad 3 costs and what it can do. I'm sure being on this forum will help me learn.

Thanks, KevinJS. Nice to know!

You're very welcome. It also helps if you take a look at the various forums and post your questions and comments in the appropriate place. Moderators CAN move things around but it's really helpful if threads are posted in the right place at the outset. If you are interested in jailbreaking, the hacking section is your first port of call, games and friend requests have their own spot and there is a help forum where pretty well any other requests for help will be answered.

Anyway. Take a look around, and enjoy the place. There is a link to the rules in my signature, which all members are encouraged to read and another one where you can download the iPad manual free of charge if you haven't already done so.
