iPad 2 - "Post-PC device"?

[AppleFantastic4]

PC= truck
iPad = car
you will take your car mostly everywhere
the truck is for specific task only

I have one more question- I'm not sure if anyone here can help - is there an app that allows you to delete a movie (not one you make, like a movie downloaded from iTunes on the iPad) or an individual song (again, not one recorded, like a song bought from iTunes) directly from the iPad? It seems absurd to me that someone would have to hook it up to a computer to do something that basic. Thanks

Music can not be deleted from the iOS directly, but movies can.

From an iPhone/iPod touch, just swipe from left to right to get the Delete button, from the iPad just Tap and Hold on a movie to get an X on the top left corner of the movie (but unfortunately you are required to plug in and back up the movie or it will be lost, unless its a movie that you already own).

Thank you, again, saving 107- YOU need to be an Apple Genius if you aren't already one

As others have noted, you can delete movies but not songs.

If you're going to have a lot of your personal media on the iPad, things will get a bit tougher for you if you never want to sync.

I am hopeful that at some point Apple will allow wireless and/or cloud syncing but I wouldn't hold your breath for that just yet.
