I am a gadget geek - I can't help it - it's in my blood! This past week has been the week of the iPad. I was so happy when it arrived on Monday I could hardly stand it. I had to wait to get home from work to get it up and running, apps transferred and etc. I only have a few iPhone apps that have been updated to fit the iPad proportions, so I have lots that are still small in the middle of my iPad screen - looks totally funny!
I went with the 32g 3G + wi-fi knowing I'll use it mostly wi-fi. I figure having the ability to go mobile with it would come in handy from time to time. The timing of my purchase could not have more critical for the 3G plans. In order to get "unlimited" 3G surfing I had to sign up the day I received the device. I did not want to do that, but my had was forced by AT&T - only days later the unlimited option was gone from their website. As I understand it, those with the unlimited plans are grandfathered in as long as they continue to renew each month. The first time I drop it, I'm out. Boo!
Anyhoo, My first week with this baby has been up and down. I find myself a little frustrated with things and that's unusual for me with a new device. I think my frustrations are that I WANT this to be a baby computer when it's really a baby iPod touch... I thought it would be a great sofa surfing device, and it is, but it's kind of awkward. Do I hold it with one hand and touch with the other? Do I sit with my knees up so I can tilt the screen and use both hands? What if I put a pillow under it, will that help??? Maybe the key is with one of the jackets that protects and provides a tilt... dunno.
So far, I am most impressed with the photo albums. I think a photographer would benefit huge from this device, having a dynamic way to show a portfolio on a beautiful screen... nice! I could even see it for designers, once they have the PDF reader ready, showing clients schematics one on one.
What I don't love is web surfing. I know! I know! I can hardly believe I'm typing this, but I don't. Websites automatically load in "mobile" mode - that's not what I want - and it's very difficult to change them back to regular web pages. I am a huge user of Google Reader for my RSS feeds. That too loads mobile, and even when changed back to regular view, does not work properly. I had to purchase an app ($7) to read my Google feed. I don't like having to purchase apps for something that should work in Safari like it does on my desktop/laptop. Grr!
I am sure I will find that magic sweet spot, but it's a little slower coming that I had hoped.
Midwest FurFest is a furry convention held from Dec 3-5, 2021 in Chicago, IL. Attendance was 8,900 and their charity was MCP Chicago.
The contents of my desk draw circa 1999. Belive me, that was some cutting edge, expensive, cool ass shit.
