So, I currently have a 27" iMac (mid-2010 quad-i5) and an iPhone 4S. I did have an iPad 2 as well, but ended up selling it because I felt like it cannibalized my use of the iMac (which I love), and duplicated the functions of my iPhone.
6 months later, I find myself missing some of the bigger screen portability of the iPad for times when I don't want to be in my home office on my iMac. I guess my question is what does the MacRumors community view as the best setup:
iMac, iPad, iPhone --- the iPad offers portability but duplicates much of the iPhone's features while also being limited compared to the iMac. Somewhat Apple device overkill IMO.
Thunderbolt Display, MacBook Pro, iPhone --- This is probably my ideal setup, but the MacBook line is influx with the retina changeover and this route is very expensive.
