Sorry I had to cut you off. I'm in Berkeley at a 3 day seminar (staying over at the hotel so have free food/room etc) and in conferences all day. I'll be back in Business on Thursday but I'm trying to check in now and then... right now waiting on dinner to be served so took a break up in the room.
Who is coming up on their one year anniversary?

Please say you have your ipad with you. Lol
As a matter of fact I brought it down to the meeting rooms along with my zaggmate and there were SEVERAL ipad users there taking notes on the ipad. I Showed my set up with "Plain text" app and dropbox auto sync and the zaggmate...everyone wanted a zaggmate. It worked wonderfully through all the sessions, I never took an ink/paper note the entire day.
Now, if only they had provided digital copies of the powerpoint printout and agendas I could have put my notes right on the pdfs!
Only reason for the laptop is to use connectify in the room to provide wireless access.... stupid room doesn't let my airportexpress share a signal and the software on my rooted android is rumored to have a sniffer for "cheating" the wireless adhoc so not going to try to tether. We have the ipad (3g so no biggie) and then two laptops to run in the room.
Anyway. Fun stuff and a really good testimonial to the use of the ipad for meetings/conferences; sure is much lighter to carry around than my laptop and didn't have to worry about a power source.
I agree with you. The iPad seems like a well made device to me. I'm sure the battery will be dead long before anything else, assuming I don't drop it!
Not my one year anniversary with iPad yet, but LOL, I have had iPhone since launch day June 2007. (well, AN iPhone that is; have had the different versions every year since) I agree that the iDevices are well made products. I anticipate several years of fun with iPad. I'll be curious to see how long they last before a battery is needed. I know what they're rated for, but it's obviously too early to see what actual results are.

Sorta. I didn't get my iPad until late May, but I got married the day the iPad came out (April 3rd)
As I mentioned I got mine in late May last year. Randomly in mid-July my charging port stopped working. The only response I could get from it is my iPad would turn on when I plugged it in, but would not charge or sync. I took it up to the Apple store and walked out with a replacement in probably less than 15 minutes. The replacement is still functioning with no problems

Was it the 3rd? I thought it was the Fourth...
The 4th was Easter Sunday
