I Bet There Are Now Thousands of "First iPad Post"s

That's why I didn't call this one that. My birthday present has arrived a few days early. Thank you Debbie. Typing on it is so far no more difficult than on a regular keyboard. I'm not a touch typist but I can usually go pretty fast with my advanced hunt and peck method. I don't notice an appreciable difference. The iPad also has the advantage of Apple's predictive spell checking and of generating an automatic period when you hit the space bar twice. Cool. Next I'll try using Dragon Dictation to dictate a post ...

I'm not embarrassed to say that this is my kind of fun!
