Proud New iPad Owner

[iBryant]

Hi everyone!

I am a new iPad owner as of Dec 17th as an early christmas present to myself I had been wanting one for so long, but couldnt really afford it with Christmas coming up. So I ended up trading some things that I didnt need for it (lucky me). I received the iPad1, even though the iPad 3 is coming soon. So far I have had no problems and I am in love with this device.

I started with apple products in winter of 2009 with the iTouch, then purchased the iPhone in January of this year. I was in love with both and now fully in love with the iPad and what it does. For me, it is more convenient than a notebook since I mainly use them for music, movies, email, facebook, etc. With the iPad it is much easier to carry around and use on the go. Unfortunately need wifi access in order to browse and what not. But for now this works, and when I get into school I hope this will continue to help.

Now I will leave with just one question:

I am more familiar with Microsoft Office, is there a progam that would be good for creating and editing word documents?

Thanks!

Bry
