Thanks for the welcome guys, I glad to be on board here. I'm not a complete techno phobe, but there seems so many things about the iPad still to learn.
Some of the basic functions I have got up and running, lots of games, music and photos. By the way, the avatar pic is of my two greyhounds, Holly and Sid. They are former race dogs now enjoying life as beloved pets.
Anyway, the app for these forums is great, as soon as I tried to read some of the forums, I was directed to the app which I downloaded and am now using of course.
Looks like I am definitely in the right place if I need help with my iPad.
Simon.
