Cheree Heppe here: It's a tough decision.
If I could do quality word processing on an IPad 2, I would select that over a MacBook Air because it will be more portable and a lot of the interface iss, for me, easier. It is possible to obtain a typist friendly Bluetooth keyboard that won't take up a lot of space or, that may take up less space than the Air or that might be advantageous when comboned with an IPad. I don't know. Regards, Cheree Heppe Sent from my iPhone On 04/03/2011, at 16:52, Mike Arrigo <n0...@charter.net> wrote: > Since you have an iphone, I would go with the macbook air.
