I signed up too!

Tracking says my wireless keyboard is on the truck for delivery today. JOY!!

I really hope that it will do what I want it to. The Apple store girl said to get iWorks for my MS Office type uses. If this works out, it will replace my stolen laptop.

I'm getting the wifi version. Will I be able to use it as a GPS system, or is that only for the 3G version?

Ahah! There's what's drawn you to it!

I hope it will do what you need and a lot more.
BTW The pinch zoom will do wonders to aid your eyes.

That's what I am hoping. I can see the iPod screens very well. I like the idea of ebooks with black text on bright white screens.

That must be painful... looking at that keyboard and having to wait for the iPad to connect it to!

It's OK, I'll just admire it for the next few weeks. It's very pretty and tiny and ultramodern. With nice white keys that I can actually see - black keyboards are murder on blind girls!

Neil, I highly recommend getting rid of the "security code" for each post in the joyofipad forum. I personally will not tolerate that.

Thanks, Ivan! So far we've had no problems aggregating news stories to share with people. I don't think I have ever seen so many stories about any hardware device three weeks before it is even out.

People want it so badly that they have to occupy free thought time during waiting...

Hi Donna -- The security code is called Captcha and I'm not in love with it either. I put it up because the last time I ran a Forum on the Internet we had 5,000 pornographic messages posted overnight in 100 fake accounts. I'm trying to find a way to limit it to registration only.

PS: Never mind, I just spoke with David and we have eliminated that "feature" so no prob.

Before mp3 players(such as the ipod), people who wanted a wide variaty of music to listen to on the go needed to carry around a heavy walkman and an even heavier CD case. with mp3 players, thousands of songs are kept in a light, compact unit smaller than your wallet. is the benefit not clear?

Thanks! And it is actually just *Donn*, but I understand the reason for the use of "Donna". It comes with the odd "handle" and Irish name.
