Apple has me hooked. When they initially announced the iPad I scoffed. Who would want an overgrown iPhone. It just did not make any sense. Now, I was in the market for an e-reader, but I got sold on the idea that the backlight of an iPad will fry my brain. Mind you, I read all of these reviews on a computer monitor. I was concerned about eye strain on a reader when I spent nearly my entre day starign at a computer monitor.

I ended up buying a Kindle. I made good use of it. Up until the point they launched the Kindle app on Android devices. That was good news. Now I could consolidate three devices I carried around (laptop, kindle, cellphone) down to just my laptop and cellphone. I made even better use of my Kindle app. I read close to a dozen books right on my cellphone.

Then it happened. I was at work and saw someone using the iPad for work purposes. It solved a problem in had on organization with a few apps it had. It was at that point I had to get one. A week later, a refurbished 16GB WiFi only IPad was in my hands. And I haven't spent a day without it since. It now has replaced my laptop.

Now it will be used for my next big project. I plan to write my entire novel on my iPad. :)
