I used it on a recent trip and it made all the difference. I was able to write documents, e-mails, etc. without a hitch. Not quite as convenient as a computer, but close enough to make it well, well worth the money! Enjoy Europe. If you get down to the Normandy area, you REALLY need to visit the D-Day Museum. It's beyond outstanding. Get the iPad keyboard — it rocks. I used it on a recent trip and it made all the difference. I was able to write documents, e-mails, etc. without a hitch.

I'm thinking of trying to go for a European tour in either 2011 or the beginning of 2012. Unless my family decides they would rather go to Hawaii first :) What an awesome experience you must be having!

Enjoy your wonderful vacation, J.D.! You earned it! :) To the other GRS readers: I strongly feel that J.D. is providing a solid-concrete example of the fruits of your labour when you plan and execute a most frugal lifestyle. I aspire to see both of these beautiful regions in the near-future, but until then, I've learned via GRS that contentment can be derived from even the most simplest of daily experiences we take for granted, such as a stroll in the local park: it's all about discovering and solidifying your personal values and priorities.

I hope you're enjoying the variety of foods here and not just pasta+pizza (à la Eat Pray Love), hehe. @SkepticalHousewife: on the iPad it's hard to type with more than one finger, in my experience.

I want one but not if I can't use it like I use my laptop. I thought you could. Someone 'splain plz? I am jealous of your vacation! I was only in Venice for overnight, but I liked it a lot (oddly, I liked the part on the mainland where my hotel was better...I think it actually has another name, but I don't know what it is). Anyway, I really want to go back someday! I would love to go to Rome next time. Wait…why is it hard to blog from an iPad? I want one but not if I can’t use it like I use my laptop.
