Ah, this iPad thingie is useful, as well as attractive and entertaining. It's 
getting a decent 3G connection out here in 
the boonies - and passing it on as Wi-Fi to the netbook+ I'm writing on.

Jim's bee image loaded a little slow, but fine for the purpose.

Yes, I could simply access my various emails accounts through their web 
interfaces via Safari on the iPad, but I'm 
playing/learning and much prefer my usual Thunderbird email. As long as I need 
the PC for dealing with images, I might 
as well enjoy its other conveniences, like a real keyboard. :-)

Anybody know if there is yet a way to manage external drives on an iPad? I 
don't need it for a short trip like this, a 
retreat where I will take few shots. If I had a way to back-up files to the 
external drive, I could possibly get along 
on a longer trip with iPad alone. I can get an accessory camera connection kit 
to get images on the iPad, but I'd like 
to be able to get them off, too.

Cute!

devices.)
