Just received the Macally Bookstand Case for the iPad and it's perfect! The grey microfiber suede cover folds back and with the closing tab tucked into its sleeve from the back creates a very stable stand. Flip the iPad on one landscape edge and it's at a perfect display angle. Flipped over to the other landscape edge, it's ready for typing. The iPad itself snaps into curved plastic corners leaving all the controls, connectors and speakers uncovered. When closed, the soft suede protects the screen. It's lighter and less bulky than my case so who knows - I may be getting one for myself too.
This iPad app will record the meeting, lecture or interview while you're typing your notes. Tap on any word in your notes to play back what was being said when you typed it. Notes and recordings can be emailed or transferred to your Mac or PC. And the best part - Sound Paper only costs $2.99. Get details at the developer's site.
Wired Magazine
Wired magazine has always been an interesting and informative look at the many forms of technology impacting the way we live so it's no surprise that Wired has created a digital magazine that demonstrates just what technology can do for publishing while its stories continue to delight. And yes, Toy Story was a perfect feature for the inaugural edition.
This is why I bought my iPad.
