[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1410238, member: 46727"] No, you posted in the correct place, however, the 3rd Generation iPad is so new (especially when you posted the first time) that folks probably have not had a chance to respond based on their experience. I just purchased my 3rd Generation iPad about two weeks ago. I don't find Pages cumbersome to use but admittedly, I have not used it on my iPad, just on my Mac so I can't comment on the iOS version. I'm currently using Office 2011 on the Mac. I don't use Pages to open Office documents on my iPad. I purchased Quick Office Pro HD instead ($19.95) since it can open, edit, and save Word, Powerpoint, and Excel files. I would have had to purchase Pages, Keynote, and Numbers to do the same thing. How are you transferring the Word files? I've been using Dropbox (free 2 GB storage) to do the transfers. You'll need a copy both on your Mac and the iPad in order for it to work. I haven't tried to attach Word or Powerpoint files to eMail as of yet. However, that's part of my work and I'll be deeply involved with doing that in the near future - as soon as I become more familiar with the iPad. I'll try to post back and let you know how it went. I use GMail not MSN but the process should be the same. [/QUOTE]
