[QUOTE="BrianLachoreVPI, post: 1287073, member: 193366"] Ugh - what a terrible analogy. I'd have to agree with Rob - the iPad definitely needs to improve its file management methodology. You don't need to be a nerd to want to organize files the way you want to organize files. Hopefully that will be improving soon and definitely iCloud will be a great addition across all Mac products, not just the iPad. Yes - it is basically a large iTouch - but the iTouch is too small. The larger screen absolutely makes it much more usable and something you can integrate into your daily workflow if you really want to. I don't think the fact that it's not powerful enough for video encoding is much of a con - afterall - as Chas does accurately point out - it's not intended as a PC replacement. I have both an MBP and an iPad. My iPad travels with me everywhere I go, however, I must disclose that I do not have an iPhone, although I do have an iTouch, which now stays in my car as just a music player. The larger screen makes a huge difference in usability and fits nicely in the gap between PC and smartphone as a portable every day tool/toy. [/QUOTE]
