Hi all

just wanted to say that I look forward to using this forum, both for myself, having been given an ipad3 as a gift, and my father, who, in his mid 80's, has also been given the same. I'm therefor learning for both of us at two different levels of usage.

So, many thanks for creating this forum.

Cheers
