So frustrating.
Janet, I thought you got a case for your iPad for Christmas that had a keyboard with it. I don't like to type on my iPad either, but you can get a keyboard for it so typing is just like on a laptop. I know they make a case or a stand maybe that has a keyboard. They also have a fold up keyboard (for travel) that is nice. I need to get one, but just haven't done it yet because I don't like to type on my iPad either.

I think more people are using iPads for work, rather than just for personal use. Our teachers and students use them extensively in class and clinical (clinics and hospitals for our student nurses). You can do some amazing things with them in terms of medical and educational uses.

If I were you Janet, I might think about getting a keyboard for my iPad, while you are saving for your laptop. I think that would help to use the iPad while you are waiting to get a laptop. If I remember right, they were about $69.00 at the Apple store (online or in person store)

For me the iPad is invaluable as I can be online and connected to work or family when Gary and I travel to more remote places that don't have wireless (eg. national forests) but do have cell service. I couldn't live without my iPad now
