Initial charging on iPad; charge iPad or use first then charge

Is it best to charge ASAP? Use it until it dies, then charge? Does it matter?

Thanks.

Doesn't matter - the battery geeks can tell you why. Apple products ship with some charge in the battery. I plan to use mine immediately - but might leave it plugged in while I do so until 100% charge.

They don't hold a "memory" so really doesn't matter either way.
