    Winning

    Won an iPad2 today.

    Stoked and can't stop gloating.

    Nyah.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Congratulations James! You deserve some better fortune.

    Mrs H recently got an iPad2. I'm as yet unconvinced by it. A lot of the stuff I do online requires a "proper" keyboard and I don't like the way some apps (like Stuff and Ancestry.com for example) dumb down the online experience or actually remove functionality.

    That said, Safari is a nice lite browser and it sings along quite nicely on Wi-Fi.

    Angry Birds is much more enjoyable on the iPad.

    Buy 'garage band'. Even if you don't use the drum machine.
    Lane Splitter is a bike game that will make you giggle for a few minutes too.

    So far I'm in about $150 on apps.

    I love it, simply don't use a pc at home any more except for synching.

    Is that some kind of feminine hygiene device?

    Favourite Apps:
    (search em)
    No particular order

    iTorch - does what it says

    File Magnet - transfer computer files and read them - pdfs word docs

    Calculator - adds up

    50 in 1 APP box - OK utility and some dross

    A heap of readers - Herald BBC ESPN NBA Eurosport Met Service. - Reading on the backlit screen and touching the navigation is really nice.

    iBooks - Only classics available in NZ, but OK, I'm enjoying the contrast of ploughing through 'Thus Spake Zarathustra' on a hi tech device. The back lit screen is etc etc.

    Several note taking apps - handy for press work, have type, handwriting and audio recording apps. 'Write Pad' is good, 'Penultimate' is OK - they all work best with a good stylus - I haven't been able to find one yet. Adobe eazel is a waste of $.

    Cameras - bought several - 'Pro Camera' offers better control - same very ordinary image quality. 'Camcorder Pro' ditto.

    'Filterstorm Pro' is good image manipulation but comparatively expensive.

    Adobe Photoshop Express - is a must have.

    Video Playlist - I like it for queueing up vids, particularly on a plane.

    Angry Birds - good game

    Fruit Ninja - stress ball with sharp implements

    Vector Tank - arcade classic

    Yahtzee - yuh, but

    RealRacing2HD - mint - 16 cars on the track. Good gameplay.

    Need For Speed Pursuit - fair

    MAd Skills MX - bike giggle

    Numerous sports sims - I like the cricket ones.

    Glow Hockey - kick its arse.

    Congratulations, James.

    I must've turned into a Luddite; I have no desire to have an iPad or iPhone, and I'm hoping that my ageing Motorola cellphone will continue to behave so I don't have to sort out a replacement.
    Oh yeah - the most disturbing symptom is I have little desire to test-ride other bikes...
    This'll be the longest time in nearly forever that I haven't even been near another bike.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.

    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....
