iPad Shipped Today

I preordered an iPad on March 30th and was planning for delivery after April 12th based on the confirmation email I got. However tonite I just received and email from Apple saying my 64GB WiFi iPad has shipped. I'm excited, I got to play with one last Saturday at MacOutfitters in Cranberry, PA and I loved the photo app. As an iPhone user I can't wait to be able to have a little more elbow room with this thing and I'm looking forward to some of the new apps being released for like Netflix and ABC . I'm looking forward to the possibilities this iPad will have as a tool for photographers, mostly as a presentation device.

Vincent Laforet has plans to send his portfolio out digitally to art buyers on iPad's and has already order a number of them with that in mind. I'd like to see Lightroom in a scaled down version for the iPad that would make presentations at weddings possible or as a way to present my photos to clients as well. But sorry, at least for now my iPad is going home with me!
