I joined the iPad generation yesterday, and spent way too much time last night fooling around with it. (Even to the point of ignoring much of the live action in the Ravens/Steelers game.)
I watched a LOT of videos (would we even need the iPad if YouTube didn't exist?). I listened to some music -- Michael Buble was the lead-off hitter. And I started filling out my bookshelf on iBooks.
I haven't bought any books yet -- it's had to justify with all the review copies I get. I'm going to save my nickels for books that take advantage of multi-media approaches to story-telling, or for magazines that Virgin and others are developing for the iPad. If you have recommendations, let me know. (Here's a cool sampling of the first cover for Virgin's "Project," from crunchgear.)
I did download a fair number of free classics, including "Pride and Prejudice" -- I have yet to read it, but promised my erstwhile blogging partner Nancy I would. It was very nice to see a long list of freebies by P.G. Wodehouse, one of my favorites. It was like going to a new reataurant and seeing a favorite dish on the menu.
