I don’t know if it was a resounding success but it was definitely functional. The worst part of the day was getting off of the train. I had my bag, iPad and headphones to deal with when the stop arrived and my departure was definitely not as elegant as when I have my iPhone.
The keyboard dock at work was key to doing any chat and email. I still don’t have a good (free) rss reader on the iPad so all of that goes through work. Which is probably a good thing as it keeps me focused at work.
I did bring out the iPad to a bar last night and I must say it shined very well there. It was super fast in looking up bar conversation trivia and let me chat pretty effortlessly with Su.
