Internet is fine posting this via my ipad but you can't get Word there is a similar program i think can't remember what is called though

Edit: called Pages

you still need a computer even if you own an ipad. ipad is simply a device to consume media and not a replacement for a computer.

Technically you don't need a computer once it's up & running but yes it better to have one if you want to chop & change what you have stored on your iPad

I would still have access to a computer as there are a few in my household and I would store all my data on one of them anyway, I just wouldn't have my own computer.

I have an ipad.. doesnt get used much, and when i does it usually for surfing and 'sh1t'. Not a replacement for a laptop really.

You can activate an iPad without a PC now 

As said it's no replacement, it's a nice to have device though.

My wife has a ipad2 and i have a samsung galaxy  tab 10.1,the samsung is better most apps are free on android where as on the ipad they try and charge you for pretty much everything.The samsung is also more user friendly when web browsing because you can use flash player (apple refuse this). Dont buy into the apple hype.

Apple refuse because it's not the way forward

Don't be put off by the non flash as Adobe are no longer developing flash for mobile devices as apple predicted would happen & most websites have moved away from flash anyway as its outdated software.

In my view the majority of companies that develop & make good apps wont if they don't get paid so I don't mind paying for apps if they are good,everyone seems to want everything for nothing nowadays. Would you go to work everyday for nothing, No ? So why should they ?

Each to their own I love my iPad hardly use my computer nowadays
