last night was great – loving the conversations and facetime.

Yes – it is a fine line but like right now I am watching a movie on my laptop – seems the couch might be better with the iPad. Who knows.

The other thing that is a fine line is gadgets, say a BB, that allow you to stay connected for work but you could be on a beach – in Bali.

All shades of gray thinly sliced with double-edged swords…

Let's hope the iPad doesn't suck more of my time from being able to enjoy the real world. Good times last night! I'm finding myself struggling to at once respect the potential that the iPad has (“it's like holding the internet and it's media in your hands”) with my desire to be able to disconnect with these things.
