Love my Mac -- adding iPad -- wheeee!

[mendinfences]

Hello All!

I have a Mac desktop, iPhone 4, and an MacBook. Decided to let a family member have the laptop -- in exchange, I am hoping the new iPad will be a good option to (mostly) replace the laptop. Most of the work I do that is "heavier" is done on my desktop soooo ... But, of course, I am finding just how much the iPad CAN do. Love all the apps!!

I do have a big question but I think I will do a thorough search first in the forum and then maybe post a question. Has to do with how to download rental movies for later viewing on TV. Ouch, my head hurts on that!

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps out all of us newbies! Great resource.

Best,
