Icon2 iPad

Got a new iPad (can't use it until next week I'm told).

Anyways, does anyone have one that uses it as a laptop? Need advice re: keyboards. Do they typically lag? Is it better to get a wired one? Can you get the office suite on iPads? etc etc.

I have been suggesting I'd like one. There is something under our Xmas tree that looks very similar in size and shape to iPod packaging. My wife will give nothing away.

Yeah, get a Galaxy Tab 2 instead!

I've got the bluetooth keyboard for the iPad and it works well.

Does it have a docking thing or anything?

Flip Power bank Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard Case Cover Dock for New iPad 2,3,4 | eBay

That's a pretty decent option, that. Bluetooth is the standard for wireless stuff like keyboards, mice, etc.

If it lags it won't be because it's wireless.

Logitech® Tablet Keyboard For iPad

That's also a decent choice.

No lag, and no docking, but if you get a cover you can always sit it on that. Or put the ipad on the other side of the room and try to work out what the **** you've just typed.

Nah wouldn't get me within 10miles of a spreadsheet, more just a word processing issue for work.
