iPad on Contract →
As I mentioned last week, it’s now been announced that the iPad is available on contract with Orange.
You can now get an iPad for £199 with a 2 year data plan for £25 per month (£27 for new customers)
Not cheap, especially as it is just for data!
In all honesty, you’d be better off buying a 3G iPad outright and getting a cheap monthly data plan from 3 (you can get 1GB per month for...

Oh my!
And that’s before she’s installed iOS 4.2 on it!

Today is the day plus there’ll be a new update to the Apple TV to enable AirPlay (4.1)
Looking forward to it ;-)
Everything Everywhere to cut iPad price in UK →
Oh wow!
Looks like the UK will be getting subsidised 3G iPads in time for the Christmas. Although the iPad is a relatively low priced item for the functionality and the power it delivers, the availability of a subsidised model will push many people over the edge.

If you have, and are salivating about the inclusion of AirPrinting in iOS4, the chances are you may have been disappointed when iOS 4 hits the streets,...

Native Editing in Google Docs on iPad →
Could this be the holy grail of document editing on the iPad?

Stream Live Freeview or Satellite TV to your iPad →
Just written a new blogpost over on the MacScreenCastGuy blog about some developments from Elgato.
It’s now possible (well once iOS 4.2 is released) to stream live Freeview and Sateliite TV directly to your iPad from the Elgato netsream devices.

iPad as a Newspaper Replacement? →
Interesting article on using an iPad as a replacement for a daily newspaper
Hangs head in shame!
Yes, it’s over a month since I posted to the blog.
Have I fallen out of love with the iPad?
Does the fact I have a new 13” MacBook Air mean the iPad is no longer relevant?
Absolutely not!
The iPad is still a huge part of my day to day Mac experience, and it’s still unsurpassed in what it does.
It’s just that I took my eye off the ball and needed to attend to some...
