This is by far the sexiest and nicest laptop I've owned... :love7:

Gz... Have you seen the MacBook Air. Now that is a nice piece of waver thin sexiness.

Yup, it's awesome! Would love one for travelling, but for work I'd struggle with it as an everyday device due to the lack of Ethernet port, an it's a little underpowered for my daily work an all that I have open. Very sexy device though. 11" Air or iPad is next on my list... :-)

Our MD uses an iPad as his workstation. He doesn't need anything else.

Well to be honest he doesn't need a fully fledged pc. He only checks mail and the occasional document. He doesn't need anything else. He is constantly busy managing the business rather than looking at or composing needless amounts of documents.

Yeah I guess it differs. My fathder is MD of a US based IT consulting company and there's no way he could get by on just an iPad, but in some instances I can imagine it's possible.

Thanks madmind... :-)

Haha, I've been playing around and testing a friends at work and I just love it. The screen and overall hardware build is just amazing. I also miss all my apps and iTunes integration in general...

We also can't replicate any sort of signal loss or dropped calls no matter what we do. Either our towers and signal are just way better, or else that whole story was blown completely out of proportion...

Anyways. Went a ahead and ordered a Speck CandyShell case as well. I have a Speck case on my MacBook Pro and they make great quality stuff.

RYAN!!! You bough an iPhone 4?! Hahahahah, I guess "once a Apple user, always an Apple user" is an apt thing to say :P

My girlfriend is heading the same direction, fast. She just got a 15" MBP about a month ago, she's buying an iPad today, and possibly a 27" iMac early next year.
That guy that used to mod cases. Now I take photos. True story.

Yup, I still love Android though and will continue to tinker with it and keep up with things on XDA. :)

I went the same way. Just got my MBP and absolutely love it! Next is probably an iPad and Apple TV.

Its an excellent case and offers total protection. Dropped my phone today when I got out of the car. Not a single scratch on the phone. Case had a small mark on it.

Went and bought me a black one as well. After dropping my phone and seeing the degree of protection it offers I wouldn't use anything else.

Congrats on the phone. You won't be disappointed. :D
