I have a wireless router in my office/rectory, and when I am not actively at the
desktop, wherever I am in the house, I use the web browser, google, and get my
e-mail on the iPad. With Pages and Numbers, I have a decent word processor and
spreadsheet wherever I am. I can transfer Filemaker databases to and from it and
use Filemaker Go, esp. for my sick calls database. I never use my laptop any
more (anyone want a MacBook Pro in great shape?), as I can stay in touch online
everywhere. For some, it would not be able to replace a laptop, but it does what
I need it to do. Oh yeah, the calendar app is great to have to remind me of
appointments and to add stuff to my calendar. So, for me, it has been a great
help as well as having some fun games on it.

So I got a new phone a few days ago and had a chance to play with an iPad at the
Verizon store.
 
Neat.  Fun.
 
And I sat and wondered…”what the heck would I use it for?’
 
So my question to the Mac-heads here:  Are they a toy or are they actually
useful?  My new droid has tethering, so I could create a hot spot and use the
iPad with its wifi when mobile.  So are they actually useful?
