The First Post, and Recommendation #1

Welcome to my blog about the iPad. Having devoured as much information I could on why I should or shouldn't get an iPad, I finally bought one. It costs $1000 in Canadian dineros, and I can state with 100% honesty and conviction that I do not regret it one bit.

First, about my iPad:

I went whole hog. 64 GB. 3G. Biggest screen I could find. (That's a joke. They're all the same size.) I've ordered a pen. I will buy the Apple case. I will probably buy my son one soon, if only to keep him away from my Precious.

(See the iPad I really want.)

One of the reasons I went for the 64 GB is because it was the only model FutureShop had in stock. (I live in Montreal, Canada.) However I had my eye on the model with the biggest storage because I was frustrated with my previous 'i' purchase, the iPod Touch. I bought the 8 GB model, you see, and kept running out of room.

This brings me to recommendation #1: If you are planning to buy an iPad, buy the most storage you can afford. During the first few weeks you will participate in an App orgy of gargantuan proportions. Not having to worry about storage is very liberating.

That's it for now. I'm typing this on a my wife's MacBook. The irony is this: I was trying to write the whole thing on the iPad. However, in Blogger's editing system, when you get to the body of the text, iPad Safari doesn't recognize the field as editable, and you can't write in it. :)
