I've been thinking about getting an iPad but came across a few references to needing iTunes and found this thread. Now let me get this right; with an iPad I can't just plug it into any computer and transfer a file like I would with an external hardrive? So I can't read a work pdf on the way home on the bus? Or use it to transfer something back to work I've been working on at home?
The iPad can not be treated like an external drive. That is the Apple way of doing things. :apple: However, once you get the pdf on the iPad, you can read it on the way home on the bus.
