Hi,

I just recently purchased my IPAD and am looking forward to hearing what others have to say. Great way to learn. First question I have is what kind of virus protection do I need?

Thanks,

Linda

Nice cheap answer for your first question.

You don't need antivirus. There are no viruses at present that can attack stock iDevices. If you jailbreak, you are slightly more at risk, but right now, you are good to go.

There isn't any virus that can attack a stock iPad device yet, but so far your still very safe from viruses and don't need anti-virus applications, and welcome :D.
