So why do I need an iPad?

You probably don't need one.

 

If you "love" the idea of it, wouldn't it be up to you to figure out why you need one?

Everybody has reasons as to why, personally, I got one for my parents because their old PC wasn't cutting it.

 

Nobody "needs" most things. It's all about personal satisfaction.

 

You don't need an iPad, but that does not stop them from being useful.

 

Like a wife

 

i'd rather take an iPad on the road/travel than my MBP

it's all personal preference

 

i play a lot of music, and there are tons of music based app's for the ipad. i run an adaptor from the ipad HP jack into my mixer and play out the amp. it sounds great and adds new possibilities to music / recording IMHO. plus the tons of other things i use it for lol

 

No one needs an iPad.

Its one of the most fun things I have bought in ages but they are hard to justify buying. Still pleased I did tho.

 

There is a speaker on it. Works great in most semi-quiet environments.

My iPad has rendered my MB useless except for using it to add or subtract content from said iPad.

 

If you don't know why you need it, you don't need it. Move on. Nothing to see here.

 

So why do you need someone to tell you what to do? I assume no one needs to tell you when to eat, or sleep, or poop? These are pretty much adult decisions. If you have to ask then you don't need one. Did you really need to start a thread to discuss something that has been discussed already a million times?

 

there is a speaker and it produces a great sound, but im using the ipad with a band, so the small speaker wount keep up lol

 

dude, why do you always lol when there is nothing funny?

 

Honestly, in a LOT of situations, your iPad can replace your laptop. You would be surprised. I use mine far more than I use my laptop now.

 

Nope, since you only use the internet. Your MBP will serve that purpose.

 

You NEED food, water, shelter, and clothing. Nothing else.

 

You're sure you don't need air?

 

I needed to buy one so she would quit complaining about how heavy her MBP was this was also followed by.." my iPhone is too small to surf the web"

 

Nice catch, but im gonna help him out I'm sure that had been thought of but clearly had realised that airs free and the rest you have to pay for...unless your a thieving squatter or live in a cave!
