iPad 2 and Business Applications ... :-(
Perhaps if I had a Mac to go along with it, I might find it of real value in the business world. But I don't and it's of minimal value and use in real world business.

I'm not a "geek" and I couldn't program squat. I've been a PC guy since the mid to late 1980's, eventually building my own PC's and migrating to the Linux OS for most of my connected time. The iPad 2 came to me as a Christmas gift from my SO. (Actually, that was an iPad, that I returned to wait out the release of 2)

A lot of what gets shared in my home-based business activity requires full on Acrobat and Flash capability and iPad 2 won't handle these very essential, very basic business needs apps.

And then there's the woeful lack of a word processor, a solid e-mail client integrated with calendar, To-Do/PIM etc. and more- much more!

So in my personal opinion, iPad is a VERY expensive browser and toy. I can't wait for a good Jailbreak to arrive!!
