Good for you! Just a hint of warning, depending on the value you may get a 1099 on the fair market value to be included in your taxable income at the end of the year. If they ask you to complete a W-9 you'll know what to expect.
Do you have a wireless network at home?

I highly recomend a rubberized case in case of bumps and falls.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

I had a little magnitized cover on it and I accidentally grabbed the cover while i was picking it somethings on top of it on the counter and it fell face first on the tile. Cracked the glass completely. I bought the parts to fix it, but DH hasn't finished fixing it 3 months later.  |

Congratulations! You'll have to let us know how you like it. I cashed in my points in the company Wellness program for $430 in Amazon.com gift cards before I quit and I've been considering an iPad, but I think it may not behave enough like a computer for my purposes- more like a giant, faster iPod Touch.

Congratulations Shasta!
I second the rubberized case - over the years I have tried all different kinds and the cheap rubberized cases are the best!
Let me now how you like it please and how useful it proves to be for you - still like to keep current on other people's opinions on gadgets.

Congratulations! I'm crazy addicted to mine. Look on Amazon for cases for your model by Snugg. I think I paid maybe $27; worth every penny. Enjoy!

Congratulations. I have followed your story and I think it is really cool that you won something that you can use and enjoy but would never buy for yourself.

Anyone have experience with iPad keyboards? Since my laptop died I would love to use it for work, but I need a decent sized keyboard to type on. I am really excited that I won it. |

We have a Bluetooth keyboard.
But will your content places want documents in Word?

Cracked the glass completely. I bought the parts to fix it, but DH hasn't finished fixing it 3 months later. Not having fixed after 3 months!!! That's grounds for murder in this house It is frustrating, but I know he can't work on it during the day with 2 little kids and he hasn't felt up to it at night. We just did a 9 day camping trip and that took a lot of time getting ready for (did I mention we have 2 little kids). Basically, yes I am trying not to kill him over it, because there truly are more important things. Although all of my packing lists are on that thing and it made packing for our trip a pain. Actually right now he is nervous about trying to install the new home button. He tried to get his brothers to help and they didn't want to touch it. Maybe we'll see if our neighbor can help. We've let him borrow our tractor a couple times and he is an IT guy. |
