If I can maximize my window (if you forgive the metaphor), it usually lets me focus, to the exclusion of other things. I am curious how I will respond to using an iPad as a reader (I don't have one - I may be getting one next month). Will I be distracted? Will I not read, but simply lie in bed at night browsing the MR forums (as I do now, with my iPhone)? I will be interested to see if I am as easily distracted as your 6 year old niece. (<--- That's a genuine smile, right there. I have a 5 year old nephew, whose lack of focus I get along remarkably well with ).
My iPad is scheduled for delivery this week. Right now, it's at the Fedex facility in Memphis so I'm hoping that it gets here tomorrow

I get along very well with my little niece too . We're going to have a lot of fun together with the iPad. I may have to fight her for it like I do my iPhone. She loves the iPhone but she hasn't caught on yet that all "her things" on my phone are educational.
