Plaxo: contacts, calendar and e-cards As a social network, I think Plaxo is pretty dismal, no matter how much it tries to Face-Twit-book-terify itself. It allows wireless syncing of a variety of calendars so I can organize client and personal calendars all in one, or separately. I use BusyCal which is like iCal but on steroids.

I know you have to pay for WiFi on the iPad, but what if you have wireless at your home? I have wireless at home, which I connect the iPad to most of the time, since I work from home. The keyboard (dock or wireless) eliminates the text input problem, although it would be a bit clunky on a plane. How long would that take?

joel_hughes Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device [link] JonDiPietro Hi Joel, I don't disagree with anything you say. No, because simply because I am not at home does not mean my home is vacant and or unguarded. I think this technology is of massive benefit to many, many venues & businesses.
