Blogging via iPad

It's been a while since I last blogged but when my iPad was delivered this Saturday I thought I would try out the iPad BlogPress app. So I connected my Apple Bluetooth mini keyboard to my iPad and here we go.

When Apple announced the iPad could be pre-ordered, I immediately jumped on the opportunity to have this new product shipped directly to my home. That seemed so long ago now. On Friday, I received a call from my bank indicating that several charges was hitting my account for various amounts. I quickly validated this was for my new iPad and all of the accessories that I could pre-order. Then it hit me and began to get anxious and excited. Shortly afterwards I received an email from the Apple Order store that my order was being processed for delivery. Wow! I immediately went on the UPS site and started my monitoring through out the night twittering and face booking my friends that my iPad's journey started in China, Hong Kong, Alaska, Kentucky, then to Portland.
