New to iPad and Forum

[Chawbie]

Hi all from Chawbie - from Sydney Australia. My wife and kids gave me a new iPad 2 for my 71st birthday!! It's beenreally great so far and I know I'll get a lot of use out of it, we do a lot of caravanning and for one it's much easier than lugging a laptop I expect I'll learn much from here..
