iPad2 Arrived Yesterday – Now What?

Posted on May 26th, 2011 in Apple, Technology by Fred McKinnon

HOORAY!  After waiting a couple of weeks, my iPad 2 shipped from China and just arrived yesterday.  (Apparently, mine just left the factory in time before the factory exploded – that was a close call).

I blogged about why I finally caved in and spent the $ on this luxury a couple of weeks ago.

Well, I spent most of the evening ignoring my wife and kids (Problem #1) as I drooled over this new-found piece of electric glory … so my question to you is, “what now”?

I definitely want to get the app that allows me to control Ableton and Logic.  The Comcast Xfinity app is super cool as well, allowing me to watch TV and movies through my Comcast login.

I wasted no time downloading a good “Texas Holdem” game and of course, “Angry Birds” for the kids.

What am I missing?

    You should pick up an app called FourScore. It allows you to store all your PDF sheet music. I use it every sunday to lead worship with! Great APP!!

    So, now that you’ve had the iPad for a month or so, how are you integrating it’s use in your worship-leading?  Have you found any tools that let you replace the big ‘ol binder of songs with electronic chord sheets that actually is useful in a worship-leading scenario?  Any revolutionary discoveries?

      Matt,
      Thanks for the comment – I’ve got a blog post scheduled for next week on JUST THAT!  Stay tuned.  (but for a hint, oh yes – very glad I got it!)
