I always thought that I had a phobia to Apple products due to their incompatibility to most enterprise and professional programs on the market. I have especially criticized the iPad for being just a large iPod with no added functionality. But recently, I was looking for a portable system to take with me between my house and college. Someone suggested the iPad, and I laughed at the notion. However, I looked into it and decided I would go ahead and take the plunge. In no time, I had the iPad ordered.
