I’m taking a short trip so, on a whim, I’m using an iPad+keyboard as my ‘computer’. There is clearly a need to ‘get with the program’ and learn all of the proper tricks but I have to say, the overall experience is quite horrible.
Text editing using the trackpad is tedious, the browser often defaults to the ‘mobile site’, using Safari-in-Chrome sucks, and iPhone apps don’t use the full screen so feel very odd, and it just occasionally locks up?
It’s all survivable, I’ll learn to cope but… why?
Honestly, a ChromeBook (which I’ll admit has limits) would be a far superior device for this type of light travel work (email, social media, word processing, and video conferencing)
Even an entry level MacBook Air would be the same price as this setup, which could do even more. The king has no clothes…
