I would love to have an iPad, but opted for a Dell Mini-10 instead. I didn't like the virtual keyboard on the iPad and the printing problems. The mini-10 is larger, but still fits into my tote bags and some of my purses. I use it for listening to books while quilting and watching quilting tutorials while at the sewing machine in addition to other usual computer stuff. Might be a good option for those who are not Mac savvy. I would still like to have an iPad because I am a gadget junkie!
