New iPad owner to-be
Hi, I'm Jamie, and live in Central Florida. I'm waiting for my refurbished iPad to arrive ( didn't realize it was coming from China ). I hope to get it tomorrow.
I'm new to most Apple products, although I do have a old Mac G4 cube which I bought used, with OS X on it, but I don't use it because it is so sluggish. I'm more experienced with Windows, and have dabbled with Ubuntu Linux.
The reason I am getting an iPad, is that I have multiple disabilities, and health problems. I can no longer sit at a desktop PC comfortably, so I need to be in a recliner or in bed.
I almost bought a windows laptop, but I kept hearing about the ipad is more friendly to those with disabilities, which I hope is true.
I am getting a 16gb refurbished ipad which uses Wifi. I really hope I made the right choice, because it's a very expensive purchase to me.
I will probably use it mainly for e-mail, facebook, twitter, web surfing. I'll also use Netflix, and maybe Pandora. I am thinking about getting Hulu Plus also.
For an early Anniversary/Christmas present, I am getting my wife a new iPod Touch. I know she is looking forward to getting it. It looks like it will be a few days behind my iPad in delivery.
Any advice will be gratefully appreciated.
