Idea was to have Bb access Mail Web ...While traveling overseas and
teaching!
3G is good for when a WiFi is not near. $29 a month unlimited.
3G plan does NOT work overseasChoices: a country SIM card or a
special plan, which I bought VERY EXPENSIVE PLAN!
The international “Data Roaming” plan worked but very very slow
Workflow was to turn on, download emails, turn off data roaming
Read emails, answer, then quickly turn data roaming back on
Purchased a 60 cents a minute WiFi plan
VERY SLOWHave to work quickly like
experiences in Venice
Still in testing It works for asking and answering
discussion postsNot for any Bb heavy lifting!
Near a wifi? GREAT! Safari, mail, all work fine and fast.
3G is slower if not near wifi but works. More and more apps for iPad are going
up. EASY to carry. Light in weight. Connected to my email, contacts, and
calendar through MobileMe (all of my computers sync up nicely)
Easy to read books and magazines and do web research
NOT a replacement for laptop or desktop!
A big harder to carry than an iPhone/iPod but text easier to see
On screen keyboard not as easy as regular keyboard (but can hook a Bluetooth keyboard to it)
iPad app not quite readyCan write, but not like on computer
Safari browser Email Drudge, FoxNews,
USA Today, etc... Dropbox Twitter Facebook Ibook P2G – Flickr portfolios WattPad: ebooks Zinio Magazine
