The problem I discovered is the iPad is very contextual to the user. It sort of adapts to your style way more than any othe device I've ever used. I use mine completely different to friends and my parents. I also found I only consume media on media, I don't produce anything even tough I have assorts of apps for that reason. If you buy an Apple TV it also becomes an awesome sharing device. My favourite consumption apps are: - Reeder - Zite - Flipboard (I personally think this is overrated but everyone else seems to love it) Some free magazines: - Entrepreneur magazine - Hacker news magazine - Narrative Magazine Plus I have a bunch of games I cycle through. If you have a mac try and get apps that sync up to things you already use so you can have random thoughts on the go, and refine them later. So for work I use: - evernote - omnigraffle - carbon fin outliner - wacom bamboo is the best hand writing app I've tried. The rest are utter rubbish. - remote desktop I'll update if I think of anymore (haven't got my iPad here ATM).
