iPad update
In my last review of the iPad I covered how I was unable to use the iPad to replace a notebook, my book reader, to teach from, and many other tasks. After 30 days of trying to use the iPad in my daily life, my feeling was that eventually Apple would get the iPad Operating […]
Charging your iPad from your laptop USB port not mission impossible
My largest dissappointment upon the acquisition of my iPad was the realization that my laptop didn’t have enough oomph (technical word = amperage) to charge the iPad. Well no longer!

Microsoft Duo – tablet, computer or phone?

iTunes updated to version 11
Many iPhone, iPad and computer users have had a love/hate relationship with iTunes. Originally introduced to help manage music collections and sync to iPod, iTunes has grown to a full blown media server, but unfortunately, the frame it was built on was often slow, cranky and unwieldy. Today Apple has released version 11 of iTunes, […]
