Don't know about what it might be for any other ordinary Joe and Jane. Yet, if you ask this modern luddite, I would say... as a productivity device, IPad II seems to be trailing behind the good old computers in the efficiency, effectiveness and luddite-ly user satisfaction department.
The novelty effects were there, though, when my eyes opened wide at the sight of the beautifully dressed IPad II.
Surely, it is small, light and portable.... excellent for a handicapped like me having problems with weights.
In addition, if your focus is mainly on information foraging and the sharing of info through methods such as emails, once an account is set up, it is simple.
Still...
It is much slower to type on an IPad II keyboard for me and it is more cumbersome to perform simple tasks that are required in the creation of digital contents.
A cable that I could use to connect to my camera or USB drives....
An app available to perform simple multimedia editing tasks (for God's Sake... it is Apple... lol)
Except for...
The belief that da cable and da App is as useful as Da belief that there is a prince somewhere out there for yours princess luddite.... Wonderful belief except for pretty "unusable" for the present especially when people always say that you have to live in the present. 8-O lol
Still need to play around with it more though... yet, looking forward to a more utility-oriented version of IPad...
How many times do you have to kiss them frogs... Perhaps, da III might be what I have been looking for? 8-O lol
Keep my fingers crossed!
