I'm getting an Ipad2 and I'm beyond my normal-excited-self. In my mind there are TONS of things that I'm going to be able to do with this Ipad that I can't do now.
Here are a few:
- Get organized part 1... have all of my classes, all of my notes, presentations, movies... in one spot and with me. Right now I have things on my jump drive, my lap top, and on my desk top. Wouldn't be nice if everything is in one space and with me.
- Get organized part 2...as the department chair of a fairly new program, I've so many administrative things to do pertaining to the program that I'm just barely making. Wouldn't be nice if my calendar was with me at all times and whenever I have a second to breathe...I could check it or it could be or something.
- Blogging the second something hits my mind! Go figure...being able to blog the second a student asks for clarification or the minute I see something cool that I want to share!
- Being able to check and send email from a source bigger than my phone is a plus too.
- PODCASTING...I've been wanting to podcast for a long time, but just didn't want to carry the camera or the microphone or deal with all of the other things I have to deal with. I mean with 9 classes I lug enough stuff...How cool would it be to set up my IPad and podcast right from it...
As I learn all of the things that I can do, I'll be SURE to share.
Do you have an iPad or are you getting an iPad 2? I'd love to know about your experiences, good and semi-bad ;).

I have an ipad as you know, but it's first gen. I LOVE mine. I journal, email, and babysit my 3-year-old with it (she colors and doodles!). I just know that you're going to have a blast!

Sweet! I've seen you use it for your calendar to keep dates and things straight. I REALLY need that organizational skill! LOL I can't wait to get it.
Congrats on joing the tablet world
